I have toyed with the idea of a replacement nonvolatile.library that uses hard disk if present.

That would be great if it were possible, although I appreciate probably a lot of effort! I had a play around with the NV_LOCATION trick mentioned up-thread to see if I could get it working with the CF card but failed, I guess maybe that only works with games launched from Workbench rather than via the native CD32 launcher/ROM?
As a newcomer to the world of expanded CD32 hardware I'm loving this thing so far in any case, the performance increase in Elite 2 and the patched Wing Commander disc are worth it on their own! Just need to be able to save in them now

Just a quick note to say that I've now got this working, massive thanks to Supaduper for his endless patience in walking me through what was needed
Looking forward to spending some time reliving my youth now, thanks again for your help and also to Terriblefire for creating this outstanding device
