      I came across Beyond Castle Wolfenstein inside of a 5.25 drive with an Apple II but no monitor. So I decided to try and play it on my RPi4 4GB(4.7.19) with linapple(build from source today). I got it working to launch the game and switch disks (if i can get that far lol) manually. So i took a look at the readme-linapple-pie and found switches availiable to designate -1 (floppy image first drive) and -2 (floppy image second drive). So my question is where do you put the switches for them to load when launching?

        Parameters for the emulators are saved in the emulators.cfg file, present in /opt/retropie/configs/apple2. The default launch command for linapple already includes the -1 switch when launching a .dsk image.
        If the game is just one floppy disk, why do you need a 2nd floppy argument ?

            @vodkanakas I think the [A] means it's an alternative version
