It lives! (I think!)
Finished the mods tonight. I made sure it still worked as a normal
controller.
Then I put a HD disk in the drive.
in BASIC I did:
poke &hffd9,0
to double the coco speed
poke &hff41,1
to double my hacked controller's speed
dskini0
returned to OK (!)
dir
shows an empty directory!
Now, if someone knows offhand how to poke 36 sectors into the dskini
routine, I can see if it's actually formatting in HD mode or not.
