[Coco] Cocoflash multi menu

[rietveld rietveld]

it's only possible because of your hardware. There is so much storage available that I was able to tweak the menu for the hardware then flash it to its own bank. ‎I wasted a lot of time trying to have a single menu that manipulated itself based on hardware, but the real solution was a very small hardware detection program that then launched its own menu based on the info it detected.   I have multiple MENU s flashed in adjacent banks that are specific to the hardware needs
