Thanks Bryce. I also  read the readme, but since it didn't specifically say if the slot selection can be done via osd also, I decided to ask here :) It sounds silly to me to use both keyboard and the buttons. BUt ok, I'll test when my kit arrives.

In fact with the lastest firmware you need only one button : the "Next Slot" button.
You can also connect another push button on the "front panel" connector.

Brilliant! This makes case selection much, much easier  ;D Is the Right button (as referred in the readme) the up or down in the manual? (see attached image)

Just thought I'd let you know: SD Floppy emulator works flawlessly  ;D I attached a picture of my... let's say... unique design (another meaning for ugly as h*ll)  ??? At least the case protects the pcb  ;D

It actually does  ;D Like the Gameboy printer that runs with batteris  ;D The case was a leftover from another retro-diy-project :)

Ahhh, fond memories of my Atari 1020 4-Pen plotter :)

Still have one of these back at my parents house (if they haven't dumped it).

That one looks a bit like as if you could play tapes with it ;-)
