I can't seem to find a source for the DISK.ROM file. is there a repository that you can point me to?

thanks

The disk.rom is an image of a real ROM that would have come with a real MSX machine. Because there are so many MSX machines out there, there are lots and lots of different disks ROM images as well . In my case I have only tested with the ROM image that came with the NMS8250 machine. If you poke around some of the emulator sites you should be able to find the disk ROM file with the MD5 noted in the README. For a project like this it's too time consuming to test with different disk ROMs, so just find that NMS8250 one.

I believe there is some site that has tried to do disassemblies of disk ROMs for many MSX machines. I can't remember what it is. It's on sourceforge somewhere.
