Holding down the key while the GS goes "bonk" always works. I found
that the RamFAST will ignore invalid keys and just pass it on to the
ProDOS start file. I only have 4 partitions, so holding down the '8'
key (either one) will boot into P8. Actually, I have Taifun Boot
installed, so I get the error dialog saying I don't have 8 System
folders to choose from. :)
