    On a RR you can... and not hurt anything. The beauty of the RR is endless!

    I have flashed in a 1024 file with TC and had no trouble, but when I try with EFILive I get an incompatable error, I think it might be how EFILive licenses the RR.

    If you have the license for EFILive and RR, it flashes just like
    the stock PCM; forever.

    It is nice to know all RR`s are the same.
    Moates has options for 516k and 1mb on his site but,
    that must be for buying a new one with an OS already installed.

    Does your RR have a connector input labeled green?
    I`m no expert but, I assume that it is impossible to load
    1mb worth of OS into a 516k space.

    I am not calling BS on this, I am looking for clarity.
    It would be nice to know if I can run a 1mb OS in my RR without issues.
    I am apt to believe that EFILive sees a conflict with the hardware
    and OS mismatch and that is why Flashscan won`t upload a 1mb OS,
    something Tunercat has not been made to do.

    Something does not make sense here-can you go into more detail?

    The road runner is an emulator for the flash chip in the pcm, it does not know what it is atached to, I have it in a 512K pcm and I can flash a 512K file in to it with EFILive and TC, then I wanted to try and flash a 1024K file in to it to be able to put the RoadRunner emualtor in to a 1024K pcm and be able to swap it back and forth between the two and have 2 roadrunners (a 512K and a 1024K) insdead of buying another one and the license. on the roadrunner emulator, they all say 1024K even in the 512K pcm. I bought the header and installed it in to a 1024K pcm with the green and blue connector and I can still flash a 512K and 1024K file in the RR with TC, but when I try with EFILive I can only flash a 512K file and not a 1024K file, it has to be licensing for efilive.

    I think I posted on one of the other threads, but the RR is a 28F800 emulator. All the 98-06 or so PCM's have a 1MB memory on them, but many only got 512k of code pushed to them, so there is a LOT of zero's in there, or they just started the write at the halfway point.

    If you look at the PCM.Dat in TC2, you do see stuff in there and some ~may~ be the start location. Just like with the 2 timer and such where multiple programs were put on one chip. You had to tell it where to start. The bootloader is doing the same thing. It is telling the program to go look at a certain start location.

    If I had an LS1 I would experiement with it, but I would be surprised if you put a 1MB program in a 0411 PCM if it DIDN'T work....

    Anyone got a RR and wanna try? You won't hurt the RR, and if the PCM freaks, just reflash..... No worries.

    Not yet, but I have run many different OS's in my 717 PCM, many that were not intended to be in that PCM and only one oddity showed up, VIN would't write and save, it would stay, but the moment car turned off, it was gone. Oh, and OLM was too.
