Lynx-cards sizes are : 128KB,256KB and 512KB. 1MB is also possible.
Lynx sees this cards through a port and may not address them directly,
only via a counter, better two counters: one for the block (0..255 on
all cards) the other for the position in the current block (0..4095,
depends on card-size). The postions wraps, so the block has to be
set manualy and the program/game has to know the exact card-size to
allow reads of more the one block.
