    yes, i was just wondering whether it works or another unexpected issue pops up

    i vaguely remember there was some key combo to force u1mb to reload partition table, you might try that in scenario where ide emulation is enabled but you still don't see the partitions the bigger problem is that i just realized that doing shift-s does not set up any other emulation (like atr), i should change it to behave like "space with ide enabled" just out of curiosity, does mounting atr, launching s2sdx3.car (to enable ide emulation), forcing u1mb to refresh partition table and then running sdx from u1mb menu (with autoenable disabled so avgcart ignores all those reset keypresses) get you there?

    there were "space" related changes/fixes in the current beta cycle so if you're on 29, you might be seeing what you're seeing you can either try the latest beta or wait for the final 0030

    what fw version are you running?

    do you have sio cable connected and detected (inverse in about ('?') screen)? i can replicate this behavior (stuck at cursor) when atr is in d2: and selector is exited via space but only if sio is disconnected (so the emulation goes via pbi), works fine with d1: it's most likely caused by autoenable feature (reset will reenable selector), you can try to disable it in settings to confirm space should do what you're describing

    i'm unable to reproduce this, shift-2 on atr and then shift-s boots to basic (so no atr in d1:), shift-2 on atr and booting to sdx via s2sdx3.car shows atr only in d2: i'm currently trying to fix outstanding bugs to release 0030, anyone else has anything that was broken in the latest beta? (speak now or forever hold your peace!)
  7. if you mean s2loader3.car, it should run in a same way as it runs on avgcart

    it used to be car with type a3, now it's just sdx.rom with no header and it has to be supercart version, iirc side2 sdx build doesn't have proper stacking built in (i don't remember the details, it's most likely modified to launch side loader instead of other cart (which is not easy to physically plug anyway))

    no that doesn't sound probable, u1mb should see that write there's no way to disable currently emulated cart programmatically (it wasn't needed), the only thing that's available is to switch cart to selector mode (actually to emulate left button) because pdm/avf/... players use that to return

    hwman says bits in $d5e1 and $d5e4 control banks of side2 cart so that's how you disable them whether u1mb does disable them when booting its internal sdx, i can't tell, makes sense to do it but i don't know much about inner workings of that code
  11. tmp

    that's looks more like a xex file, not car and it case it wasn't obvious, such cart would have to have type 162 (side loader) or 163 (side sdx) to enable ide, copy code to ram to disable bank at $a000, enable u1mb's sdx and then reboot (there might be more issues i can't currently think of without looking into code/docs)

    you can get side2 build of that beta, prepend 16 bytes from the beginning of s2sdx3.car to it and rename it to .car you can use sdx imager on sdx rom (before turning it into car) to either copy your config.sys contents to the car:config.sys or use MERGE there to merge your d3:config.sys (theoretically, never tried) i'm not sure if you can control u1mb this way after it has booted, check phaeron's hwman, the operation of u1mb should be described there

    mounting atr via tab/shift-number and then running s2sdx3.car should work

    config is saved on card, if you switch cards, you switch configs cart jumps to COLDSTART for a cold restart (reset line on atari is unfortunately output only) that most likely doesn't trigger u1mb to boot sdx so you probably need to either get into u1mb menu and boot sdx there or use some modifier key with reset key to get it to boot sdx (i'm not familiar with u1mb usage and i have no u1mb to test on, if all fails, it has a detailed manual) that could be a bug, i'll have to test that

    ctrl-shift-s enables autoside mode which is persistent (what it does is that on poweron it skips going into selector and just enables side2 emulation for use with u1mb, somebody requested such features years ago), it is disabled using ctrl-s (or via settings menu) shift-s just reboots with ide registers enabled, you probably wanted that (depending on what you were trying to achieve) as for returning from xex, that's something i realized i could improve a few years ago but completely forgot about it, i'll put it in some todo (when i'm thinking about it, it's possible that somebody else mentioned this in the past and i already promised to look into that, if that's the case, the original person wasn't bugging me enough allowing me to forget so it's definitely his fault, not mine!)
