Atari ST Virtual Floppy Drive Part 2 of 2 - Using Auto Folder to automatically load a program on VF.
In the previous video, I showed only manual program launches from a virtual floppy. As a conseqeunce, I had a question on whether AUTO loading from the virtual floppy via the Auto folder was possible, too. The answer is yes, option 4 on the boot menu enables this by making A: virtual floppy active on booting up. To show this functionality explicitly, I have uploaded this "Virtual Floppy Part Two" video to show how automatically loading from a virtual floppy works.
Please note that there is a limitation with commercial encrypted programs that address the floppy disk controller directly. This is not really an issue as Peter Putnik has converted so many games to hard disk already, that it's v...

    I became a teenager in 1981. MTV showed up at the same time. For me, my childhood was the 70’s and the 80’s my teen years. For me both decades were great. 90’s were great too. Every decade has great and crappy stuff in it.

    The memories/feelings. Feelings are life. Someone sent MP3’s of some old demoes of a late 80’s band I cofounded. So raw.Still the magic was there on cassette. I still have two and all my dongles. I don’t know what to do with them. Local goth industrial band Skinny Puppy used it for their best music. Stopped using my 1040Ste in 2008. Most of my friends don’t want to hear about the nostalgia of being a punk. Funny I’ve been through many incarnations. Still trying to be present. Be well 🧗🎸🎹

    Years ago, mid-late 90s I worked for an ISP company, they did "experiments' in their spare time... One conclusion was Acoustic couplings linked with cans and strings were not viable methods of transmitting data, those disposable plastic cups and nylon fishing line gave a much more reliable connection.😜

    It's probably hard for 20-somethings and below to see this in context. In 1983, MTV coincided with the widespread availability of cable TV. For pop, rock and rap, it was *the* single source which everyone below the age of 25 watched for new artists and bands. Thus it was huge factor in how music was consumed and how millions of people's opinions were formed. Totally unlike today, where there's a zillion streaming channels and audiences are very fragmented.

      @MrPetari 22 дня назад

      Hi, I'm author (programmer) of it - AUTO folders from floppy image files can run, of course. It is not about being resident. Option 4 (pressing key 4) after boot, when text appears on screen is for it. Normally A is active drive when ST(E) works with 1 or 2 floppies only. When there is hard disk C is normally active, and then AUTO folder run happens from C:/AUTO . So, when press key 4 during that 9 seconds wait A will become active, and then AUTO run will happen from currently set ST image for VF (it is on hard disk, of course) .

    The golden year of MTV for me. I was 15 in 1983, didn’t have a driver’s license yet so wasn’t out running the streets yet 😂 so I had plenty of time to watch MTV at my best friends house. This is the year we became obsessed with Prince, and then in 1984 Purple Rain album and movie came out…I didn’t know anybody who wasn’t crazy about Prince, even the older guys we hung out with that were big metal heads loved him. I also remember every time Boy George sang, “Do you Really Want to Hurt Me?” The guys would all say, “yes!” 😂 I can actually feel the shag carpet we’d lay on in front of the TV, room dark, hanging out and discussing every video that came on..
