Thank you so much for your efforts. I can confirm sashikos finding in my
test (that I saw later), that this patch hangs the bus if a VMU memcard
is inserted. So that the peripherals don't work anymore after insertion
of the memcard. With a last log like:
Dreamcast_visual_memory 3:01.E: VMU at (3, 1) is busy

Florian
