To reproduce: Use rr38pal.crt or action replay 7.5 pal as cartridge. Switch off and on the c64. press F3 You are not at the start screen of the C64. Press the freeze button and press M. Now from monitor save from $1000 to $CFFF to the u2+.

From Retroreplay: @10 (or @9) works and the u2= answers with U64IEC ULTIMATE DOS V1.1 but then if I do S"test",10,1000,D000 I get device not present. (same happens with device 9)

On action replay 7.5 pal instead the behaviour is this: S"test",9,1000,d000 it writes: "SAVING TEST" and the hangs there indefinately.

This is a problem of the Action / Retro replay. The ROM does not check if it is a real drive and just uploads code to the drive to enable disk turbo and expects it to work. The Ultimate DOS does not support speedloaders like that, of course.
