 Hi,
 Sorry to pour cold water on this idea !! We too have the SE diskette, the
 problem is that it can only be used to upgrade an Emax once. Once the Emax
 EEPROM is updated the diskette is written to and the diskette becomes the
 Development diskette not the Upgrade diskette. It has some nice samples on
 it that use TM. We havent had any luck with disk2file either....
 
 You need to reverse engineer the small upgrade application from the OS
 diskette...and switch the bit back on that means its a new upgrade
 diskette..trouble is finding a PC or Mac program that reads and writes to
 ALL areas of the Emax formatted diskette. Thats why EMX is a bit
 tricky...Now if someone copied a virgin SE diskette with EMX we might be in
 business.....
 
 E-mu don't have the ability to create more SE upgrade diskettes, and they
 have not offically sanctioned the Emax diskettes on our web site
 either....they just turn a blind eye.
 
 We are liaising closely with the 1980's E-mu team and we hope to have a
 solution to the SE upgrade and many other E-nmu gotchas early next year once
 international travelling becomes less risky ....
 
 Regards

               Send me a copy of that disc and if it's a sector pointer or 
non pointer we can recover it, also send a copy of the Emaxll memory upgrade 
disc that goes with the 4 meg kit #2208, and the 8 meg kit #2208. Or anyone 
who has these and would like to make some copy's and send them out, I will 
have our team work on them. If $$ needed for shipping no problem.
