tspoor commented 1 year ago

Using: Panasonic_FS-A1GT MegaFlashRom SCC+ SD

Nextor Kernel Version 2.1.2 alpha 1 NEXTOR.SYS version 2.12 COMMAND2.COM version 2.44 EMUFILE v1.21 Dutch MoonSound Veterans Disk 1

Steps to reproduce:

  1. CD MB¥DMV
  2. EMUFILE DMV.EMU DMV1.DSK
  3. 1 disk image registered.
  4. EMUFILE SET DMV.EMU
  5. Done. Resetting computer (System reboots)
  6. It seems to start AUTOEXEC.BAS, however the screen remains black and system hangs.

The following works:

  1. MAPDRV G: DMV1.DSK
  2. G:
  3. BASIC AUTOEXEC.BAS

And loading it in the cartridge works:

  1. OPFXSD DMV1.DSK /D1
  2. Press reset button

Hi, this is not actually a bug in the disk emulation feature: the DMV will fail too when booting Nextor in MSX-DOS 1 mode, even when not in emulation mode.

Strictly speaking this is a bug in the DMV (wrong detection of the MSX-DOS version), not in Nextor. But anyway I'll make a small change in Nextor that will make this issue disappear. Details in https://github.com/Konamiman/Nextor/pull/128.

Sorry forgot to provide my feedback. All is good now and it works as expected. Thank you!
