Johannes: you could also use HPDrive to emulate a 7970 9-track tape drive 
or 9144A cartridge tape drive, so you wouldn't need to write your own 
emulator.  Your CS/80 boot ROM should be able to read the first block of 
the 9144A tape image into memory, although the code read in must be 
arranged in a certain way.  Let me know if you want the details.
