It is not quite that simple. The Coco3 memory can be switched in backs
of $2000 using the addresses $FFA0-$FFAF. What you will need to do is
switch memory to a value equivalent to 512K RAM, read a byte value,
write to that byte value, read to see that it changed, switch back to
the original $2000 byte bank, and read the same byte to see that it is
the original value.
The above should be done with interrupts turned off and is best handled
with a short ml program. You must select a bank that will not switch out
your program code nor vital system code. Typically $FFA3 could be used
to switch memory in the $6000 - $7FFF region.
If you want the challenge of writing a test program, use the above or
ask for more info. I could send you one of my own programs to use, if
the shaw address is a good one for sending direct e-mail. You would need
to be able to transfer a binary file from your Browser to your Coco.
