- Does he have 68040.library installed in libs:
- I think it is probably required to emulate instructions that are present in
- the 68000 but not the 68030
- As it's an illegal instruction guru, this seems pretty likely to me - it
- should just be a case of copying the file from your libs: to his via a
- floppy or something, and making sure he has setpatch in his
- startup-sequence, as this is what loads it into memory.

- Hope this helps
