Is there any FlashROM solution for EmuTOS? On Amiga guys have even 1mb simply you use combination of keys and boot to 1st or second type or ROM. I wonder if we have similar.

There is a problem with using ST keyboard for ROM switching. ST uses a so-called "intelligent keyboard", which in fact is a separate microcomputer, which communicates with the ST over a serial port (UART). When ST is in reset condition, the MCU in the keyboard also is, so you can't read any keys during reset.

As for the first part - you can program EPROMs or Flash ROMs with EmuTOS image, like with any other TOS. As a fun fact, there is an EmuTOS image for... Amiga.

Got EmuTos on Amiga 500 with TF520 / 68030 fpu 2mb ram. But need similar for ST. I mean EmuTOS is bigger than 512k or so. There is EmuTOS on Tindie as ROM. But want more modern solution FlashEEPROM or something like that so I will be able upload latest EmuTOS on it. Like on Amiga simply I flash from floppy that ROM.

kkrys has a new solution for switching 4 ROMs for STE, also he mentioned about ST version.
Switching is done by pressing the reset button pressed in a special way

I have a mechanical switch hidden over the cartridge slot...
There are several variants of EmuTOS images, but for the full-bloated version, you will need TOS 2.x adapter board for ST.
