Lots of the OS9 heavies have been >studying this one for over a year. I have been working for the past two weeks trying to get a working boot disk. I got one about a month ago, but every thing that I do doesn't seem to work. I almost got one two days ago, but I foolishly cobbled it to patch the /term module and now I can't get ANY boots to load properly. I really want to get WIZPRO to work. I did get it loaded and working for a short time last night, but I tried to select the gcal module and it crashed.
