Ah right, that is annoying, too. I haven't tried it yet, but looking at the source there is a byte at address $042F in the ROM. Currently it's $08 and the meaning is documented in the source: * bit(s) value meaning * 0 0 do the full memory test * 1 skip the memory test for a quick reset * 1 0 scan rom slots * 1 skip the rom slots, unexpand the m/c * 2 0 normal establishment of memory size * 1 take the upper memory limit below as gospel! * 3 0 monitor mode * 1 tv mode * 4 0 wait for f1-f4 selection * 1 skip the f1-f4 selection * 5-6 0..3 extend supervisor stack by 0K, 8K, 16K or 24K * 7 0 set single screen * 1 set dual screens * 8-13 0..63 extra blocks of 64k between last screen and system vars * 14-31 upper limit on memory (0 = no limit) * (Note that the top bits of d1 are unlikely to ever make sense as memory!) One could for example patch a $11 into it to get - skip memory test - monitor mode - no wait for F1/F2 (actually there will still be a tiny wait of 32ms, so keys can still be pressed) Use any hex editor to change.
