I know almost nothing of ProDOS 8 and Basic.System, but
I believe one common problem loading stuff with both
or one of them is that there is some memory map, maintained
on a page by page basis. If a page is marked used, you cannot
load stuff to it. For example, I believe the text pages are
marked used, so you can't bload a text or lores screen.
Solutions include 1) mark the pages unused (not sure this
is so kosher) or 2) load the data elsewhere then move it
to where you want it.

I think there's also issues in terms of not being able to
move himem around as much, but that's really out of my area.
