Patching ProDOS for Franklin and clones.



There was a request for help in patching ProDOS to run on
a Franklin ACE 1x00 machine.  I dug around in my stuff and
found the patch information I've always used.

Be advised that I have no way of knowing if this will work]
on any of the "softboot" Franklins, but it is guaranteed to
work on all "HardBoot" Franklin ACE 1x00 (rev A and B mother
boards).

------------------------begin P8Patch.TXT-------------------------
To patch ProDOS to run on a Franklin ACE 1000, 1100, 1200, etc.
and probably MANY other clones and workalikes, use a sector editor
to search for and replace the following byte sequences in the file
"PRODOS":

       Search for:            Replace with:
     --------------          --------------
     69 0B D0 03             69 0B EA EA

     AE B3 FB E0 38          A2 EA EA E0 38


This works for all versions of ProDOS up to v1.9.
It may also work with v2.x if your Franklin or other clone works
properly with a 65c02 or 65c802 CPU.
