If you are using any disk drive besides the old Atari 810 then the problem with booting your disks may not be the XL OS but the disk drive. One software protection scheme times how long it takes to load in sectors and will not boot correctly on new drives. (Blue Max) will not boot using a 1050 disk drive. ihuxf!bryan Bryan DeLaney P.S> Ah, the price for software protection (lost sales, incompatibly with system upgrades). I refuse to buy software that is protected but will buy unprotected software. The only exception is when the vendor gives you two copies in case of disk failure.
