Tormod, actually that is how I have been testing HDBDOS and my own 
patched version of standard DECB.  I have a custom preload stripped of 
the all RAM mode and move to ROM code so that way I could do:
KILL MEM @7
CLEAR 200,&H4000
LOADM"NEWDOS.BIN"
WRITE MEM @7,&H4000,&HC000,8192
RUN @7

This way I could use the flash chip in the CoCoSDC for doing my testing.
