Does anyone know if you will still be able to boot from a floppy in DF0: under KS 1.3 if you have an autobooting device in one of the A2000 slots? Thanks -Roger

>Does anyone know if you will still be able to boot from a floppy in >DF0: inder KS 1.3 if you have an autobooting device in one of the >A2000 slots? The answer to the above question is yes. You can boot off the floppy by simply having it in DF0: when you boot. Autobooting off the hard disk only takes place if no disk is found in DF0:. Note that you can also autoboot off a network or CARD: (the recoverable RAMdisk). ...Art
