Boot process

MVS boot process (SP-E)

 * Interrupts are disabled and acknowledged, watchdog is kicked, $4000 in (Autoanim speed = 64 frames)
 * Puts $FF on all 3 LED latches (uses NOP waits)
 * Use BIOS vector table and onboard FIX/M1 ROM, activate both coin lockouts
 * Checks the 64KiB of work RAM by filling with $5555 and reading back, filling with $AAAA and reading back, filling with increment and reading back.
 * If all dipswitches are down, check backup RAM like before but in an infinite loop
 * If not, check if "BACKUP RAM OK !",$80 is at $D00010
 * If string isn't there:
 * Go for full check
 * Init backup RAM by filling the 64KiB with zeroes backwards ($D0FFFF to $D00000)
 * Copy "BACKUP RAM OK !",$80 string
 * Write 01 01 01 02 01 01 01 03 00 00 30 3B 00 (13 bytes) to $D0003A
 * Write $23(35) to $D00122
 * Write 8 times $0000FFFF from $D00124
 * Write $F0F0F0F0 to $D001AC
 * Write $FFFF to $D001B0
 * Reprotect backup RAM
 * Checks the 2*8KiB of palette RAM, bank 0 and 1
 * Checks the low VRAM ($0000~$7FFF) and high VRAM ($8000~$85FF) with the same $5555/$AAAA/inc method
 * Tells the RTC to output a 1s period pulse, time is measured in frames using the Vblank interrupt between two falling edges, if less than 57 or more than 64 frames: Calendar error. Warning: code can get stuck in a loop if RTC pulse line is cut ?
 * Weird check on the Vblank handler pointer in the bios itself, never changes ?
 * Computes 16bit bios checksum by adding together 128 bytes from $000000 (vector table) and all the ones from $C00082 to $C1FFFF. The value is then compared against the one at $C00080, if it's different: "SYSTEM ROM ERROR"
 * Memory card name is requested with CARD function, if error code $81 (inserted but not formatted), do full check with $55, $AA then 16bit inc.
 * $D0005E=$FFFF,$D00060,$D00048,$D00020=$0000, 16 bytes are cleared from $D00024 upwards
 * Reads the time from RTC and sets $D0005A.b to the hour
 * Reads date from RTC and compares year/month/day with $D00104.b, if difference:
 * $10F300 = $D00105, $D00104.l = $10FDD2, $D00122.b inc'd up to $24 in a loop with other stuff

CD boot process (TOP-SP1)

 * CD registers are set like this:
 * $FF0015.b = $07
 * $FF0017.b = 0
 * $FF0006.w = $71FF
 * $FF0008.w = 0
 * $FF000A.w = $7E40
 * $FF0165.b = 3, then 1
 * $FF000D.b = 3
 * $FF000E.b = 0
 * $FF0119.b = 0 (disable video output)
 * $FF0111.b = 1 (enable sprites)
 * $FF0115.b = 1 (enable fix)
 * $FF0101.b = $A
 * $FF0103.b = 0
 * $FF0101.b = $E
 * $FF0103.b = $10
 * $FF0167.b clr
 * $FF016D.b = 0
 * $FF016F.b = 0 (enable IRQs)
 * Init RAM
 * Load BIOS vector table
 * Disable interrupts
 * Load DRAMs with graphics & stuff
 * Enable interrupts
