I want to ask a question which might be related to this point:

Wouldn't it be possible to include something like a "floppy image changing gui" which allows the user to choose between all his floppy images to be inserted into his virtual a: drive? In bochs you have this option (via a virtual console). In euae the same job is done by a gui.

This might be a solution for multi-floppy games which HAVE to be installed via floppies.

Thanks.

I don't think it is possible 🙁
You can try mounting a copy of the 1st image, do a DIR on it, then overwrite the copy with the 2nd image, do a RESCAN command (or press CTRL-F4), and then do a DIR.
