#1611 Using vdrive

[ops]

I have been happily using +truedrive -virtualdev for quite long time to access host file system.

I just compiled latest VICE from svn and it seems that this method doesn't work anymore.

$ xvic -default +truedrive -virtualdev

True drive emulation and virtual devices are now configurable per drive, so try xvic -default +drive8truedrive -virtualdev8.

Ah, OK. Works now. Thanks!
