Emax

When I looked up that 9346B it was so cheap I will just get a few so I  
have em in case anyone gets scrambled megs.
I will put it in with an order for other ICs and sockets, so no biggie.

Thanks,
Ted

Yeah, as far as I know the EEPROM controls which upgrades the EMAX  
detects... as long as the hardware is there obviously. You might need  
to fill some sockets with DRAM if it's a 4MB model. If it's a 2MB I  
don't think it will have the board and you don't have any options  
besides stereo. The card reader makes loading banks a lot faster and  
once you get there, it will format a 1 GB card. The only problem I  
didn't realize until later is that it will only be able to use  
something like 400MB of it due to bank limitations. It's still more  
than plenty for me and flash is cheap.

If you run into any problems with the EEPROM image I would like to  
hear what they are. I haven't heard much since I uploaded it, so I  
guess it's working out. BTW I am running that image on a 9346B chip  
and it works fine. You might even have one laying around on an old  
modem card.
