Make sure you put the name 'MKRAM.KER' on the stack as to show like this:
1: 'MKRAM.KER'

or whatever names you use to download the file.


Please read carefully this file before installing the Meta Kernel

A 128 Kb RAM card (or 256 or 512) is needed to install the Meta Kernel.
1-Unprotect the card if necessary and merge it with MERGE1 (in the Left
shift-Library menu).

2-Empty the whole port 0. For instructions, read chapter 28 of the
User's Guide.
If there is no important data in your calculator, it is easier to
initialize it by pressing simultaneously the keys ON, A and F, and
answering NO.

3-Transfer the program named RECV.KER from the PC to the calculator,
with XMODEM or KERMIT.

4-Then transfer the file MKRAM.KER. XMODEM is recommended, because of
the huge size of this file. In order to use XMODEM, with an HP48 REV R,
just use the built-in command XRECV. With an HP48 REV M or P, first send
the file XRECV.PRG from the PC to the calculator, then use it as if it
was the standard XRECV command.

5-On the calculator, put the name of this file on the stack.
and execute the program RECV.KER.


6-After a short time, the Meta Kernel is installed.
