Floppy IMG derived from archived files. Mount as FLP1 and boot using Minerva 1.98a1 ROM, 2048 KiB emulator RAM and Toolkit II 2.32. Loaded a six-byte binary through the Files menu; correctly disassembled MOVEQ #$2A,D0, ADDQ.L #1,D0 and RTS at offsets 0,2,4. Preserved the independent fixture. Editing, saving and other instruction sets were not tested. Basic functional check in sQLux, not full validation or a physical-hardware test. Audio untested. ROMs are not included.
