Megadrive128 LOL

I think that's an ATmega128, AVR 8-bit microcontroller. I've started playing with AVRs, nice chips IMHO.

Wouldn't that violate some copyright law or something I'm happily unaware of? =)

No, I don't think so. Didn't you design your own avatar? Well, that means you are the copyright holder of that image and you may use it for whatever purpose you have in mind :-) You can always flip the hand horizontally and it will be a totally new image :-D

No, it is not possible to populate MMC from the host. I am using standalone USB card reader for that purpose.

Multiple drives can be implemented in future designs if there be any. Basically, only 2 drives will fit into 8M of DRAM the emulator has now.

Great work!  :-o

Is it possible to load files from the host?  (or, just from LCD/programmer control).  Any plans to do one that can handle multiple drives?

Thanks :) This is my first factory made PCB.

One IDC lead goes to programmer, another one is for LCD.

Looks good. :-)
What do the two smaller IDC leads connect to?

Great stuff! Keep up the good work :-) It would be funny if you could modify the Kickstart ROM so it would show the hand with an SD/MMC card (like your avatar) instead of a diskette :-D
