- You're right! My mind had tried to hide the 1.4 ROM from my memory. Why
- on earth did they take it out?
-
- Handy Tip: If you've got an A3000 that boots kickstart from hard disk,
- hold down mouse buttons to go into the select kickstart page, and click
- on the invisible close gadget in the top left corner. Then it will not
- load kickstart but use the 2.0 beta kickstart from rom. Warning - it's
- very buggy (and the gadget imagery looks awful!), but on those rare
- occasions you NEED that extra 1/2Mb ram, it's damn handy...
-
- And then you too can see the deny forever requester and the strange green
- gurus....
