Have you tried a 1.4 build?

Other useful questions:

  • is Desktop copying itself to the RAMdisk on startup?
  • You mention ProDOS 2.4.3; does it repro with 2.4.2?

I can repro in MAME (via Ample) using //c Plus and 1.4. I'll figure it out - thanks for the report!

At least for the shortcut case, the MLI OPEN call in lib/invoker.s circa line 99 is failing with $56 Bad Buffer Address. The buffer is at $800, and the system bitmap at $BF58 is $CF $00 $00 ... $00 $00 $01 which should indicate page 8 is free. This is... weird.

Okay wow, this was quite the journey. The bug requires exactly this to happen:

  • An Apple IIc+ which has unique mouse firmware and what I'd consider a bug
  • MGTK being used with ROM banked in, which is only true in the Selector (Shortcuts) module, which has fragile code
  • ProDOS 2.4.3 which apparently has critical code at just the right spot at $FBB3. 2.4.2 is apparently immune; some memory corruption must be happening but it doesn't cause a problem.

This was a bug in the original MGTK (although 6f08ef6 replicated the code).

The fix will be in the next 1.4 alpha build (end of January).

@samccormack https://github.com/a2stuff/a2d/releases/tag/v1.4-alpha5 has the fix if you want to try it out

@samccormack thanks for letting me know about the "copy itself to the RAM disk" issue. Big mistake on my part. I'm pushing out an alpha6 with the fix because it was new in alpha5 and really bad. https://github.com/a2stuff/a2d/releases/tag/v1.4-alpha6
