Hmmm... Anyone know what's going on there? It's loading fine here, and I
tried it on the PC too to make sure it wasn't some strange cache issue...
Maybe my frame code's dodgy, try this:

I suppose that's true :) Have you tried it in a PC to see what that comes
out with?

Hmmm... The MakeCD docs does warn that it will lock up the machine when it
nears a buffer underrun so it can try to keep ahead of the burner, so maybe
the PowerFlyer s/w is trying too hard and strangling the burn process,
resulting in a complete lockup you can't get out of. Are you using
Executive? I know that helps with some problems occuring because of the
CPU-hungriness of the driver, but I don't think it'll change the PIO
situation :(

Rob
