Hi David,
I worked on this earlier last year and was able to get ADOS3 flashed to one
of the CoCoSDC banks (with the help of quite a few folks on this list).
What I have not done yet is get Extended ADOS3 flashed, but working on it.
Both are great applications and I wanted to use them, too. Look for the
subject "CoCoSDC and Extended ADOS3" from 11/18/2016 for more details
otherwise contact me offline.
Thanks!
-Ron
