So it seems the only big storage is of an older build, I personalley use a cooked from of that build cause I love the whole idea of getting rid of the extended rom. So I was wondering what its going to take to get a big storage version of the newest build ROM ?

I know many of us have tried to follow bepe's notes on how to make the changes. If I recall correctly, only once one person was able to get the extra storage realized, but it wasn't stable and not repeatable.

Unfortunately there's a big "grey area" around the OS.nb and how it controls the mapping.

If bepe could get re-motivated to either build a new one, or better yet - give an indepth look so we can do our own, we'd be in much better shape.

Using big storage hacked "old" OS.nb file while building new OS.nb does the trick to any build out there..

So I`ve noticed..

Yes, that works. You get a hybrid though, which seems to vary in reliability from what I gather.

BTW, there is a nomenclature issue with "bigstorage", as it was originally used for pre-WM5 systems for re-allocating between storage and program memory when that could be done. Then it was used to identify roms which were re-packed with tadzio's tools. Now I guess its being used for bepe's mod. I chose "superstorage", to be clear, but I'm not going to fight the tide!

Best wishes,
