Autostart

From vice-emu

In the following configurations autostarting will not work - "TDE" enabled, "handle TDE" disabled and "autostartmode 0" can not work.

disk images

Disk images seem to be the most tricky thing, since different drives have different levels of supported emulation

(*1) "True Drive Emulation" is available and works with the given drive.

(*2) The images for this drive work in vdrive (ie without TDE)

device traps

Device traps are needed to make the "virtual drive" (access host directory) work. Also for vdrive, ie using disk images without TDE.

TODO

  • fix automatically selecting the drive type by looking at the image type
    • do not change the drive type when the selected image works on the respective drive (if 1571 is active and d64 is selected, it should NOT switch to 1541)
  • perhaps have an option to automatically remove cartridges before autostarting

unexpected failures

xplus4 seems a bit unstable (some tests fail randomly)
