	~~RISC OS Draw app uses unimplemented copro instructions; needs ABORT line support to the~~ ARM ~~core; missing hard disc controller, serial interface, 82c711, podules expansions~~.		Should be good enough after recent ARM changes. To be QA reviewed.

Startup check pretends that a VRAM of 1MB is invalid so games will break later with their Sport setup (causing more or less severe layer clearance issues in some SWs).
