No.22268 Haze Senior Tester Aug 13, 2024, 15:46	there was definitely an old bug along these lines, which came down to the OKI status flags, but I thought that was sorted a long time ago. (that said, MAME's handling of such flags might still not be 100%, as several Jaleco Megasystem 1 games still need hacks, and it's confirmed there's nothing special about the OKI hookup on those PCBs)

No.22275 Haze Senior Tester Aug 20, 2024, 18:17	MAME doesn't care at all if another app is using the same disk while the emulation is running as it's making literally no disk accesses at that time.
