- Ric Fisher of Softwood has reported a beta version of Magic Menu which
- fixes the problem you refer to; but it has not been released.
-
- Allegedly, the patch "ObtainGirPort' cures the problem. I say allegedly,
- because it didn't on my A1200/'030/6 meg. Disabling MagicMenu when
- in FW is the only solution. I use SiliconMenus, which doesn't have the
- problem, but others prefer Magic Menu, so....
