Arduboy FX simulator (ATmega32U4 + SSD1306 + W25Q128). All boot code
embedded as C arrays: Caterina/Arduboy3K bootloaders for D1/D2/E2
hardware revisions and flashcart header. EEPROM and flash state handled
via RETRO_MEMORY_SAVE_RAM. The libretro port never accesses the system
directory. firmware_count = 0.

note: |
All bootloaders are compiled from Intel HEX into C arrays at build
time. The core selects the game or menu variant at reset depending
on whether a flashcart image was loaded and the boot_to_menu config
flag (src/absim_arduboy.cpp:151-181). The bootloader is written to the
top of the ATmega32U4 program memory at the address defined by the
BOOTSZ fuse bits (src/absim.hpp:811).

array: "ARDENS_BOOT_FLASHCART"
size: 1536
note: |
Empty flashcart header written to the first 1536 bytes of the
W25Q128 flash image during initialization. It is the default flash
content the Arduboy FX expects at the start of external storage,
not a BIOS file.
