As most of you know, the Amiga has support for a 9600 baud terminal as a
debugging device. I never discovered out how to dump to ROM Wack on a
Guru, however. When I dusted off a Kickstart V1.1 the right mouse button
would work, under V1.2, no. Carolyn Scheppner provided the secret:
Press the delete key on the remote terminal duing the blinking light (before
the impending guru).
"poof", it worked. This is *not* listed in the version of the RKM that
is available to me. Never seen mention of it anywhere before.
---------------
To try this out, just type "libs:diskfont.library" from any CLI. (When
that bug is fixed I'll have to write a custom Guru maker :-)
However, to get to ROM wack you don't really need that Guru. From a CLI type
"loadwb -debug", and use the invisible menu to select item "debug". Type
"user" or "resume" from the remote to restart the Amiga when you are finished.
