Well. The question is: I know A-2000's can boot off harddisks, but can Amiga 500's ? I have heard, that one can fix it to be possible, but that was in early 1987. Can A-500's boot off some harddisks, or will a patch always be needed ? And is it a major fix, or a slight one(e.g. will it cost the price of a 2000'er? :-) E-mail responses are probably best(?), then interested people can email me, and if they look like a lot of people, I can post a summary. Thanks in advance! -- From the notorious Jakob Gaardsted, Computer Science Department Bed og arbejd ! University of Aarhus, Jylland (!) (Pray and work!) AMIGA! | I'd rather play Moria.
