drive 1: SYSTEM disk

Menu asks for BLANK disk in drive 2:

it then creates the Blank disk into a User Disk.

Insert User Disk in Drive:1
RESET.

@seiya :)

the user disk (blank) is created from the system disk.
this makes it a bootable user system disk.
the user disk can also be written to with save data, preserving the original disk to make more user disks.

i missed a step.

once user is created the game will only boot with 2 disks in the drives.
drive 1: user disk
drive 2: briefing disk

fd1=Power Dolls 2 (User boot disk).hdm
fd2=Power Dolls 2 (Briefing disk).hdm

i start to add extras with also cd-rom audio (in reality are mp3 and flac audio track)

i almost finished, with 1800 titles, screenshot (101 games missing screenshot) and missing many info about games.
That is not a problem, becuase slowly i will complete all, but i cannot share because i need to find a cloud with at least 50GB free space...
