The Pirate Adventure binary file is not setup for Emu71/DOS only. The file is an IRAM image which can be easily loaded into any of the 71B emulators, FRAM71, or an IRAM configured from your 32k RAM.

For loading into your 32k RAM you'll want to use ROMCOPY. You can search this Forum for links to the docs or holler if you need directions.

I recently discovered that EPRMCPY, included with the CMT EPROM programmer for the 71, is simply a version of ROMCOPY with different defaults. There are usage examples of both programs at the end of the CMT-71-P01 Instruction Manual.
