I've been trying to get Colossal Cave Adventure

The ADVENT.SV versions are VERY sensitive to just about anything in the

Basically, it turns off interrupts and saves all memory. If you have
different devices all manner of badness will happen.
The current ADVENT release doesn't have that problem, and properly
handles files being moved about. I don't know how easy it is to get new
files onto your emulated disk, but you might want to have a look at

There's a RK05 image on that page with the current code ready to go.
However, you can try running what's on the diagpack -
.R FRTS
*ADVENT.LD
