This is A2620/30-related so I might as well mention it here.

With Kickstart 3.1 and A2620/30 ROM -07 you have to enable/install the OSMODE jumper in order to auto-boot Amix from A2090(A).

Changing the OSMODE jumper state doesn't seem to register. I think it should be recognised if you change it then click Reset. [Maybe with real hardware changing OSMODE jumper state then Ctrl-A-A would be sufficient???]

For example:
- Using AMIX_A2000_A2630_A2090A_A2065.uae config, install Amix to A2090(A). Eventually (in Amix) do shutdown -g0, wait for Amix to say it's okay to shut down then quit WinUAE.
- Run WinUAE, load the config. (The config has the OSMODE box unchecked.)
- Eject DF0: and start emulation. Get purple Kickstart insert disk screen.
- Press F12, check OSMODE box. Click Reset. Still get purple Kickstart screen.
- Press F12, click Restart. For some reason OSMODE reverts to unchecked, so check it again then click Start. Now Amix boots.
