That would certainly solve the issue, but
then I would have to leave out my Slinky
Ram card that is in slot 1. I guess I need
to go through all my disks and see what will
run under 2.0.3 and put it on them. Yes, if
I put that on with A2Desktop, then it will
map partitions 3 and 4 to slot 2 while it's
in slot 7, and if I want to boot from floppy,
then control-reset before it's loaded or hit
startup drive after it's loaded. Yeah, I'll
put 2.0.3 on it and move it to 7. Now, what
about my VTech card? I can use the Laser ROM
in it? And how about cables? Anything on that
yet?
