Interesting that it won't work there, because it works fine from
the page that Lucas got it from:

http://rich12345.tripod.com/SMB/

Maybe it is a problem with how he is downloading/uploading it?

the above page is on my site.  Uses activeGS from
freetoolsassociation.com

The smb.zip file was actually sent to me from Olivier Goguel (with the
FTA)
Olivier downloaded the file from iigs.dreamhost.com (Lucas's site) and
made it into a bootable disk image, then emailed it to me.  I had
contacted him via email to see how to start Hard drive images within
activeGS...  I was trying to "boot 71", slot 7 drive 1.  Turns out
there is no drive designator on slot 7, and you need to just "boot 7"

I looked at your web page and the only difference I see between the
two is that I have set mine up to boot from slot 5 instead of slot 7. 
I changed the <param> tags to match what you have, so hopefully the
one on my site works, too.

Also, I just coded up a quick and dirty level editor for people to
use.  I've had a few volunteers to produce levels for SMB, so here's a
easier way than typing in a bunch of hex.

Download it at:

  http://iigs.dreamhost.com/smb/MapEdit.tar.gz

it is also linked off the main SMB page.  Included in the archive is a
set of SMB tiles and a sample level called "world11".

Enjoy!
