fwiw, EasyFlash starts in Ultimax mode (the old one, with THT parts)
and was designed to be compatible with the MAX. The only thing one
would have to do is to write custom start-up code and menu, because the
menu which is linked by the cartridge makers doesn't run on the MAX.
Just don't touch the GAME/EXROM config register to stay in Ultimax mode.
