   that they come with absolutely no documentation.   
   I have to disagree with that statement.  Every ZIP file, including the   
   C128DCR file comes with a file called:  ROM Creation README.txt.  In it,   
   it says:   
      
   ROM creation requires a EPROM/FLASH/EEPROM programmer and suitable stock:   
   (EPROM, EEPROM, FLASH).  It is beyond the scope of this document to explain   
   programming steps.  Consult your user manual for programming information.   
      
   The non-JiffyDOS CBM files can be found at   
   ftp://www.zimmers.net/pub/cbm/firmware/drives/new/   
      
   The non-JiffyDOS non-CBM files are typically available at Zimmers as well,   
   but can also be read from your existing drive ROM(s)

   I will admit the size is wrong (a switched unit requires 64kB EPROMs,   
   but everything else is there.
