So TRANS41 has hard coded memory locations that prevent it from simply being dropped into RAM? As you can see, SHOWPORT is working from the toolkit.

Both the FORTH/ASM and TRANS41 modules have both a Hard-coded ROM (at E0000) and Soft-coded ROM (address based on which Port it is in).

Sylvain's procedure explains how to load the 2 files for each of these 2 ROMs for the FORTH/ASM module, the same procedure can be used to load the 2 analogous files for the TRANS41 modules (these files are in Dave's Toolkit I believe). So you just follow the same procedure using the 2 TRANS41 files.

Note that, just like in a real machine, you cannot load both the FORTH/ASM and TRANS41 modules at the same time, as both need to access the same HC (Hard-Coded) ROM at E0000.
