Floppy 1582/1590/1591 ROM wanted

I found a few notices about these Commodore 3,5 HD floppies. The 1582 prototype was a normal(?) 1581 with Amiga HD floppy and modified ROM.

I would like try this ROM on my 1581 replica, which uses classic PC floppy (which can read HD diskettes), but the ROM file isn't anywhere available. Is it in any archive?

are you sure those drives actually existed? i'm sure if that was the case, then the ROMs would be on zimmers

Some info is here: http://www.floodgap.com/retrobits/ckb/secret/periph.html

There is a topic that the ROM was available at ftp.funet.fi, but I can't find this file now.

mmmh ckb site times out for me for some reason *shrug*

anyway, since zimmers is a funet mirror (or better, its successor) i kinda doubt the ROM was there. you might want to contact whoever said it was.
