- STAGE2 GENERATION PROCESS:
-
- This is only used to create new versions of STAGE2 if changes are
- desired. It is highly recommended that the STAGE2 implementation
- portions of Waite's book be carefully studied and understood before
- fooling with this stuff.
-
- This stuff is NOT relevent to using STAGE2. It is supplied for those
- who have to see how things work inside or want to modify STAGE2 (lots
- of luck) or want to create a STAGE2 for some other processor or
- operating system.

- FLT2 CH3,CH4=FLD2.DAT ; TEST RUN 2
- STG2 CH3,CH4=ST2T.DAT ; TEST RUN 3
-
- Compare CH3 & CH4 output files against published test results.
-
- Do only one at a time (not all 3 as shown above).
-
- Order is FLT1, FLT2 then STG2. Tests must be successful before
- continuing to the next test. After all test are successful the
- current version of STAGE2, "STAGE2.COM", may be deleted and the
- new version, "STG2.COM", may be renamed.
