This isn't happening for me. The clone x820 crashes though.
However the bigboard and mk82 (another clone) do not boot from the disk, instead giving a 'Disk error 10000000' when B is pressed.

Use "mess bigboard -u109:0 sa450 -flop1 diag" to prevent the crash. I'll leave this open though since there should be a warning and not a crash.

Crash happens because disk image has 40 tracks, but default floppy device only supports 35.

Since 0.209 this isn't crashing anymore, but since 0.220 it gives only a black screen, while between 0.209 and 0.220 it loaded.
