- - the latter is (part of) what my "COLDBOOT" program, posted a while ago, does.

- A utility was posted a while ago to make the RESET button do a COLD reset.
- I don't like that (since I want to keep the reset-proof RAMdisk) but
- occasionally I do need a cold boot. Since HDB2.3 apparently does not
- boot right if I leave the HD on and turn the ST off and on, I wrote the
- following little ditty. It asks for confirmation, then does a cold
- reset (that redoes the memory size check, although it keeps the time...).
