[comp.sys.amiga] MoreRows is great, but Preferences might bite

MoreRows is really wonderful. Using MoreRows and interlaced workbench,
I'm able to get 700 x 430 pixel screen! Even using Topaz 11 (which looks
real nice in interlace), I get 35 lines in GnuEmacs, truly heavenly. 
(With background set to black and characters either green or orange, I find
that I can work in interlaced workbench without any problems... I love it!)

ANYWAY, a word of warning to you all who have not tried MoreRows. After you
use MoreRows, you are supposed to go into Preferences, do a save, and then
boot so that the new settings take effect. I have already trashed 2 disks
by booting too quickly --- I exit Preferences, wait for the red light
to go off, then boot. Unfortunately, you have to wait a bit more until the
red light is definitely off and the disk stops making noises...Just having
spent a while in DiskDoctor, I thought I should warn you --- Be careful when
booting after Preferences! (BTW, in both cases the system-configuration file
was the one to bite the dust...)
