+==== DolphinDOS2 ====
+DolphinDOS 2 is a kernal ROM replacement for the C64 and 1541 disk drive to speed up disk operations.
+If you are interested in using the C64U w/ JUST 1541 emulation, you should look into it. D64 load speeds are insane!
+  - Download the ROM replacements from Github (click on the right side on 'releases', download the .zip file)
+  -  Rename kernel.rom and 1541.rom to something different like kernel-dd2.rom and 1541-dd2.rom
+    - => copy to flash
+  - Go into the Memory & ROMs to choose the kernel-dd2.rom kernel for the C64 and 1541-dd2.rom for the 1541
+  - Go into the 1541 drive settings and enable extra memory
+  - Head into the "secret" advanced C64U menu (shift+F1)
+    - => choose Machine Tweaks
+    - => Enable the Parallel connection setting
+Reboot and you're ready to go. \\
+Want to go back to normal? Just do the reverse of steps 2-5.
+Pro tip: Use a [[Configuration file]] to easy switch between modes.
