I built Terrence's Rom Drive, but I burned an image of a standard diskette
with a modified version of Dos 3.3 since I have Elite One (SS/DD) and Elite
Three (DS/DD) drives. Since this is an image of a diskette (140K), anything
that will save an a diskette can be added to the ROM: I added the set of
files created from the Elite System Master, so that it will always be
available. The "Hello" also boots a "CATALOG" program and redirects to
S6,D1.
