Wow, that is too cool that you got it working for 1.44 MB disks already!

The AVR firmware update (femu.bin) worked great, but I can't get the CPLD update to work. It says "could not open firmware.xvf" after I press NEXT to confirm that I want to update the CPLD. I even tried formatting my card and copying it again...any ideas?

I just tested and the previous firmware.xvf from the 64K update flashes, but I can't get the firmware.xvf from the linked floppy-emu-1.0F-F7.zip file to flash.

Final edit: Nevermind, got it to work. It's because the file was marked as locked on the SD card, and I noticed from the old floppy emu code that it tries to open the file read-write. So that's all the problem was :) Looks like the read-only flag is set on the file for some reason when I extract it from Windows. Now for testing!

Real final edit: It works! Just tested with a 1.44 MB Disk Copy 4.2 image I had sitting around. Yay! Thanks bigmessowires, nice work!
