Thank you for your kind help!

I think that MEMORY LOST clears some 41C register information, but I've never
traced that sequence.

Saving page 804 will preserve the MMU programming.

Not all Flash devices have the segmented top block that make the YWALL easy to
use. If the top block is not segmented you'll end up erasing the entire block (pages
1F8 through 1FF). In addition, depending on the sequence, you may end up
inadvertently erasing 1FE when you attempt to write 1FF.

There is no room in YFNZ.
