Technical notes

System ROMs embedded in binary: C128 kernal (318020-05), chargen (390059-01), BASIC lo (318018-04), BASIC hi (318019-04), C64 kernal (901227-03), C64 BASIC (901226-01), plus all drive ROMs (1540, 1541, 1541-II, 1551, 1570, 1571, 1571CR, 1581, 1001, 2031, 2040, 3040, 4040, 9000). Embedded ROM check in sysfile_load takes priority over filesystem. Localized kernal/chargen variants (DE, FI, FR, IT, NO, SE, CH) are in the embedded list with NULL data pointers; selecting a non-international model produces uninitialized ROM data. JiffyDOS requires True Drive Emulation enabled and a 1541/1571/1581 drive type. C64 BASIC/kernal use shared names (basic-901226-01.bin, kernal-901227-03.bin) instead of upstream c128-specific names (basic64-901226-01.bin, kernal64-901227-03.bin) to share files with the C64 core in RetroArch's shared system directory.
