   If you did that, it would be an either-or situation between the RF
and 5.25" disks. Normally, I don't use both at once (my 5.25" drive
has been used less than 30 times in the past year; Dos 3.3 Launcher
rules), but I usually leave slot 6 switched in (my SoundMeister's
in Slot 6), and the 'AppleDisk5.25' driver switched out.

   All I need now is a bit more HD space (HardPressed is looking like
it'll be a good investment) to crunch up the GS/OS stuff for P8
stuff like Dos 3.3 Launcher files (40-odd 5.25" disks full of misc
unprotected games still not on the HD), and random Eamon stuff (30
800K disks :)   Or, just move all the random GS/OS games (50 odd
MB) to Floptical...
