Title tells everything. I want to dump all my bootlegs cartridge but I do not have a NES. I've a 1989 Famicom (GPM-02).

Doesn't matter. I don't know what C8 is replaced for exactly, but it seems to be for the lockout chip, which doesn't exist on Famicom. Likewise, the flash programming enable goes to a cart pin which also doesn't exist on Famicom.

Damnit, MasterDisk!
Why didn't you just buy my NES when I was trying to get rid of it?

Flash program enable is routed via the CIC? There is always a workaround, but it may prove to be more trouble than it's worth to implement.
Here is the FC schematic...

Nope, that's through one of the expansion port pins, I should have said.

if his only interest is dumping carts then the flash programming wire dose not seem to matter.

Ah, that makes a lot more sense. It looks like he's set then, as neither connection is relevant to his intended usage.

So I do not need to care about these 2 things (CAP8/16th pin) ? I just need to install the copynes and put the cpu ?

Yeah pretty much. Note that the copynes board wont actually fit in your famicom. Kevtris (the creator of copynes) has a few pics of how he did it to his famicom.....(basicly relocated the copynes board outside of the famicom)
