If Hatari emulation was so good that software can't notice they don't run on 
real hardware, then there won't be any need for Hatari-specific software 
such as minthat.prg ;-)
IMHO NatFeats should be automatically enabled when GEMDOS drive emulation is 
used, because Hatari can't be furtive anymore.

Anyway: As I understand, your need is not really to detect Hatari: it is to 
detect if someone has added a virtual drive by hooking the GEMDOS trap (as 
Hatari GEMDOS drive emulation does). So you can check the trap #1 vector at 
0x84, and see if it has been hacked (i.e. pointing to cartridge space).
