Hot Boot and Cold Boot on 8-bit Famiclone BBG-DOS

On 8-bit BBG Famicom clone, you can write assembly program and use basm.cmd (the BBG assembler) to compile into *.cmd executables.

The hot boot (similar to Ctrl+Alt+Del or pressing Reset button) has an memory entry $580f and the cold boot (the power button) has an memory entry at $5806. But I guess on BBG, there is no much difference comparing these two booting.

Therefore, to emulate the hot startup, save following into hot.asm and run basm /cmd hot.asm on BBGDOS prompt and this will give you a hot.cmd

org $8000
jmp $580f

Similarly, to emulate the code startup, save following into code.asm and run basm /cmd code.asm on BBGDOS prompt and this will give you a code.cmd

org $8000
jmp $5806

Pre-compiled hot.cmd and cold.cmd can be downloaded respectively, both zipped, less than 1KB (in fact, hot.cmd and cold.cmd both are 5 bytes only)
