Is it possible to stop currently loaded program and start a new one by switching out the floppy at runtime?
I'm using emu to load a tun of .dsk image files on an se card. When I select an image, nothing happens. But if I switch off in that state and switch on again then the program loads. However if I "eject" that image, select a different one and hit empty apple+ctl+reset then I just see apple][ logo and nothing happens.
So my question is, is it possible to load a new program/game without switching the computer off and on?
btw, I'm new to vintage apple computer world.
If the image is selected in the EMU, then Control-Open Apple-Reset should reboot the computer without power cycling. Works the same as a physical floppy drive.
Yes.
Switch disk images and press the "power" button on the Floppy emu.
I do this all the time to swap disk images on the fly.
