[comp.sys.amiga.games] Tip for Falcon/'030 plus mission disk info

koren@hpfcdc.HP.COM (Steve Koren) (11/02/90)

Here's a tip for Falcon owners who have a Hurricane 2800 accelerator
or any other type which requires you to run a configuration program
to turn on caches, etc.

If you just boot Falcon on the '030, the Hurricane card won't use
its 32  bit mem, nor will it use both I and D caches.

However, you *can* copy HurricaneConfig (or whatever) to the Falcon
boot disk, and modify the startup-sequence to run it.  This helps
immensly.  Just be sure you don't do this to the original disk!

PS - for those asking about the 2nd mission disk, you should receive
     a pamphlet in the mail about it.  It is pretty cheap; I think
     they wanted $15 or $18 for it, or $25 for both mission disks
     1 and 2.  I sent in my order a few days ago.

PPS - Seems that SH could make some serious $$ now by releasing an Iraq
      mission disk :-)
