Cannot Boot an “Embedded-Root” image > 10 MB on my JavaStation. Why?

There is a known limit of 8 MB when using the “Embedded-Root” boot image option. The cause of this is the current version of the PROLL software, which map only 8 MB of low memory. Any more and banking support would need to be added to it. If needed, this limit can be fixed by someone, as the source to PROLL has been released under terms of the General Public License (GPL). So in reality, the embedded image size limit is really 8 MB , not 10 MB. If 10 MB somehow works for you, it is sheerly by “luck”!
