Launching programs from ProDOS

Hi,

I made a BASIC program (startup) that lets me select:

1)merlin
2)copy 2 plus

b)ye

6)boot slot 6

0)basic prompt


I added an option:  P)ain  816 paint

it tries to do:  print chr$(4)"-paint.std.hires"

but basic.system reports "NO BUFFERS AVAILABLE"

the startup program does nothing more than printing
a menu (using PRINT statements), waits for input
(GET statement), and then branches based on input
(in this case, IF A$="P"then goto 2000...2000 print
chr$(4);"-paint.std.hires".

is there an easy fix?
