This posts are simply a documented logs of my findings while learning, unfortunately I also found issues with the MMU configuration table content and I had to resolve those before going further.

The 41CL is also a big beast to master and making both play well together is not a simple matter, at least for me. To backup and restore multiple HePaX setup in the 41CL, there are two things you must take into account: the MMU configuration Set 0 and the HePaX RAM pages. Because on how HePaX works, it is not enough to save the MMU configuration Set 0 you also have to save the pages where are located the HePaX RAM or else you will loose your HePaX RAM data. Here RCLCFG and STOCFG will not be of any help, we need to find a way to backup the MMU configuration Set 0 and the HePaX RAM to either, another RAM block or offline to a LIF file. I will focus on that part and continue with my rambling with the MMU configuration after. Quote:I hope in your help!Same here Sylvain edit: typo |
