BTW, there is an exception to that rule, but it doesn't apply to a
Europlus.
The original //c (before UniDisk 3.5 support) allowed PR#7 to boot
from S6D2.
Also, in case the OP didn't know, slot 6 is where the 5.25 disk
controller should be - many programs assume that location, and some
are hardcoded to use it.
