That means the manufacturer of your network card has to add those ROMs with the appropriate code (Ameristar is looking into this I believe). It also means that if you have the appropriate cassette interface you could boot from that, now isn't that special :-) ? You know, I just realized that the Amiga can't read cassettes made on the PET, Vic-20, or C-64. Talk about lousy support, I doubt if I will ever buy another Commodore computer. :-) --Chuck McManis uucp: {anywhere}!sun!cmcmanis BIX: cmcmanis ARPAnet: cmcmanis@sun.com These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
