I'm planning on building an adapter to allow replacing the Kernal ROM
with a EPROM with three different ROM images on it. The hardest
thing in doing this looks to be getting the EPROM burned.

Perhaps not _in_ the C-64, but there were plenty of cartridges and

and do it. I'm in the market for a device to read and program
EPROM's such as would be found in DEC or Commodore 64 hardware.
The c64 never used EPROMs, only masked ROMs. Though there were one or two
aftermarket devices that would use 'em, typically with an adapter.
