So now to find out how the register mapping is done for this model...

Could you dump on the MSX the whole slot of the disk drive? Then we can see whether the ROM and/or the registers are mirrored in the slot.

If you put it in your MSX slot 1:
- saverom fddslot.rom
- Primary slot: 1
- Secondary slot: 0
- Select type: Normal
- Begin address: 0
- End address: ffff

Hi, here is the dump as you have asked me with the saverom.

Quick analysis:
HX-F101 has a WD1793 compatible controller at 07FF0H
FDD busy led at 07FF4H (b2) w ?
Drive select at 07FF5H (b0) r/w ?
Disk change at 07FF6H (b0) r/w ?
DRQ/IRQ at 7FF7H (b7,b6) r
Only media with mediabyte 0F8H and 0FAH are readable by diskdriver
drive is single sided

FYI: there is no mirroring, not of the ROM, not of the registers.

You mean it's wrong with the saverom?.

For those that are interested in the diskdriver code of the HX-F101, the raw version is here:

This device is now emulated in openMSX.
@zeilemaker54: thanks for the annotated disassembly, it was helpful.
