I have to disagree with that statement.  Every ZIP file, including the
C128DCR file comes with a file called:  ROM Creation README.txt.  In it,
it says:

ROM creation requires a EPROM/FLASH/EEPROM programmer and suitable stock:
(EPROM, EEPROM, FLASH).  It is beyond the scope of this document to explain
programming steps.  Consult your user manual for programming information.

The non-JiffyDOS CBM files can be found at
ftp://www.zimmers.net/pub/cbm/firmware/drives/new/

The non-JiffyDOS non-CBM files are typically available at Zimmers as well,
but can also be read from your existing drive ROM(s)

Switched C128/C128DCR KERNAL ROM (32kB)
basic.901226-01.bin
kernal.901227-03.bin
kernal.318020-05.bin
basic.901226-01.bin
JiffyDOS_C64_6.01.bin
JiffyDOS_C128DCR_6.01.bin

I will admit the size is wrong (a switched unit requires 64kB EPROMs,
but everything else is there.
