BTW, when Hatari mounts a hard disk image, it should lock it in exclusive 
mode. It is not very consistent to allow writing to a mounted image.

On the other side, as you say, when cross-compiling Atari software, writing 
to the hard disk image (with mtools for example) and reset would be a 
convenient feature (if we are sure that the OS never writes to the disk, in 
the interval).

Similarly, it would be nice if Hatari could read the ROM from disk on each 
cold reset (if not already the case). That would be convenient for EmuTOS 
development.
