Initialization of Kernal and Basic system variables

The following code does a software reset.

systeminit
    SEI
    CLD
    LDX #$FF
    TXS
    JSR $FF84    ; IOINIT - Initialize I/O

    ; Initialize SID registers (not done by Kernal reset routine):

    LDX #$17
    LDA #$00
lp1 STA $D400,X
    DEX
    BPL lp1

    ; RAMTAS (JSR $FF87) - Initialize System Constants

    ; $FF87 is not actually called because it would do
    ; a RAM-test which lasts a few seconds.
    ; The following code does the same as RAMTAS but
    ; without the RAM-test:

    LDA #$00
    TAY
lp2 STA $0002,Y
    STA $0200,Y
    STA $0300,Y
    INY
    BNE lp2

    LDX #$00
    LDY #$A0
    JSR $FD8C

    JSR $FF8A    ; RESTOR - Restore Kernal Vectors
    JSR $FF81    ; CINT - Initialize screen editor
    CLI

    ; Basic initializations (optional):

    JSR $E453    ; Initialize Vectors
    JSR $E3BF    ; Initialize BASIC RAM
    JSR $E422    ; Output Power-Up Message
    LDX #$FB
    TXS
