I have to admit, that I didn't really test the routine.
If you run the program from DOS, E: is already initialized and the
routine does nothing.

It depends on whether the problem is only a bug in the AtariMax
routines. If regular (game) cartridges start up with E: initialized,
the routine shouldn't be needed.
But if not, I think it makes sense to have such a routine.

Can you put a cartridge image on the AtariMax, and simulate a real
cartridge startup? Then we could test the E: behaviour.
