I think the idea was to boot disk with no DOS on it. With only "AUTO*" file. So the emulator should do something like this: 1. Insert dummy disk with DOS. 2. Press <F9>. 3. Wait until "OK" message. 4. Remove disk. 5. Insert disk selected by user. 6. Press <F9>.
Or, if it is possible, state after booting DOS can be saved as snapshot (this means with DOS in memory and modified some system variables), then: 1. Insert disk selected by user. 2. Load "booted DOS" snapshot. 3. Press <F9>. -- Yarek.
