Hi. Is there anyone here that has converted the Spectravideo SVI-738 to MSX2? I did everything according to the instructions from https://hansotten.file-hunter.com/special-msx-hardware/svi-7... (without mounting the clock circuitry).
The computer works normally, but at startup I have something like in the picture ("KL00: 128 kbytes") instead of normal messages about free memory. Is it normal? I also downloaded ROMs from the above site (ofcourse roms for modification without clock).
Thanks for help, folks! Now i'm waiting for my Carnivore 2 to arrive 
.
The reason for showing VRAM on MSX2 is probably that the standard did define minimum 64K of VRAM. So a handful of "crippled" machines will show 64KB VRAM. It is possible to update VRAM to 192KB, but there is not much use of the extra 64K.
2+ standard defines as standard 128K VRAM, and the system counts available RAM at boot up.
Carnivore 2, is a great expansion, and especially together with SVI-738 which has only one free cartridge slot .
