save states disabled for boot.rom

I set Super Metroid as boot.rom in the root of SNES and it loads fine but the save state options are greyed out. I tried the same thing in the NES core and the save state options are available. Anyone have a workaround?

I would assume this is a bug. Probably best to report it on github.

You do mean auto save don't you? MiSTer does not make use of save states.

Correct me someone if I'm wrong but, I believe that whatever boot.rom you use will not be able to use the save function.

What ever you set as a boot.rom will not create a save file.

I would use something that does not make saves as your boot.rom.
