So an MPI configuration?

XRoar's MPI config ability needs a bit of work as you still specify it
all globally rather than as part of a cart config, but right now you'd
do something like this in xroar.conf:

# Orchestra 90 in slot 0
mpi-load-cart 0=orch90
# RSDOS in slot 3
mpi-load-cart 3=rsdos
# Default slot 3 (like switch selection)
mpi-slot 3

And as I implied before, if you want to "put tape over the autostart pins" of
the Orch 90 cart:

cart orch90
  no-cart-autorun

Then if you run with "-cart mpi" it'll behave in the way you expect.
