I've been trying to get Colossal Cave
Adventure (ADVENT.SV) running under

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

*ADVENT.LD

Thank you very much, Rick. Great website, and I'm thrilled to see modern
developments for such a classic game. Nice to know the files are now being
properly handled. Your code worked great; here's my success:
