Yes, this works, though I've not tried this with the new OSX files. In the past, this is just how I loaded these, until I started installing HEPAX, which self-relocates to Page-6, if available, so now WARP is installed in a higher port.

DM-41X / V41: If you use the "page-specific" versions of the MOD files (i.e. OSX_P6.MOD, OSX_P7.MOD, and WARP_P7.MOD) then the OSX / WARP module will always be plugged in those pages, with or without HEPAX present. The HEPAX will re-locate itself to any *available* pages but those are already used by said modules so they aren't available anymore. That happens first in the module loader, while the relocation is triggered by the CALC_ON polling point which happens *after* the module loader has done the initial allotment of pages. OK?

SY-41CL: Yes it's perfectly safe to use the OSX3.ROM in page#6 and the PWRX.ROM or the WARP.ROM in page #7. In fact this is exactly my configuration (except when I need to plug the HP-IL, obviously).

It's really not that complicated once you get the knack of it... ;=)
