Does UltraSatan usage need cartridge?
Or do you instead need a driver e.g. in AUTO folder?


(GEMDOS HD emulation needing program in AUTO folder would
be a no-go.  So Hatari cartridge code is used for handling
Pexec() calls with GEMDOS HD emulation.)

If UltraSatan provides cartridge, dose it declare cartridge "file system"
in the cartridge header like Hatari cartridge image does?

Hatari cartridge image header is following:
dc.l    $ABCDEF42                               ; C-FLAG (magic value)
dc.l    $00000000                               ; C-NEXT
dc.l    sys_init+$08000000                      ; C-INIT - flag has bit 3 
set = before disk boot, but after GEMDOS init
dc.l    infoprgstart                            ; C-RUN
dc.w    %0101100000000000                       ; C-TIME
dc.w    %0011001000101001                       ; C-DATE
dc.l    infoprgend-infoprgstart                 ; C-BSIZ, offset: $14
dc.b    'HATARI.TOS',0,0                        ; C-NAME


	- Eero
