I usually managed to bring it back to order using very simple configurations, and building them incrementally. Also it's important you have the right stuff in RAM/Flash and not pointing to "unknown" blocks...

Thanks! I have stripped it down to single block configurations, one OS flash image for flash settings 0 and a single SRAM block for the SRAM settings 0. It seems hard to get it "wrong" in simple setups, I can image more elaborate configurations may require some care.

The HP41 does not want to work with it anymore. It looks fine on the PC MLDL manager side. I contacted its maker, but he is on vacation, so it will have to wait. Not a big issue, there are plenty of other things to do in the mean time.

I found the MLDL2000 very easy to use, a few clicks around to download over USB. It provides very quick turn arounds for testing.

My CL is not as easy to use as it lacks a serial port, I should perhaps get one at some point. It did freeze up the other day, and I had to remove batteries to get attention from it. I have to see if that was just a single glitch, time will tell.
