Sweet16 and GS/OS Booting



I am having a problem with Sweet16 that does not occur on the a real
IIgs. I have written my own launcher program in BASIC so that I can
choose at startup to boot a 3.5 or 5.25 floppy, exit to BASIC or run
GS/OS.

I have renamed the GS/OS "PRODOS" file "BOOTGS", copied the P8 file
out of the System folder and renamed it "PRODOS". I have called my
launcher "STARTUP" which then launches from BASIC.SYSTEM.

I use CHR$(4) commands to boot from the floppies etc and I use "-
BOOTGS" to launch System 6.01. This works perfectly on my IIgs but
crashes horribly on Sweet16.

Am I doing something wrong or is this some sort of Sweet16 limitation?
