Short: Stop WBStartUp progs from running
Author: l21893@fc.ul.pt
Uploader: l21893@fc.ul.pt
Type: util/cli
Replaces: util/cli/NOWB.LHA
!!! VERY IMPORTANT !!!! IF YOU ARE USING THE PFS2.X FILESYSTEM, DON'T EVEN
TRY TO RUN NOWB, SINCE IT WILL *CORRUPT* YOUR SYSTEM PARTITION !!!
This version is only an update to the docs but contains *very* important
information for pfs 2.x users. However, I works just fine with AFS !!!
Don't ask me why, since my program is only doing legal stuff...
NoWB allows you to boot your system without the loading of any programs
in the 'WBStartup' drawer. It's useful when you want to save memory and also
load the WorkBench.
I decided to do this, since every time I selected 'Boot With No
Startup-Sequence' on the Early Amiga Startup screen and typed 'LoadWB' on the
CLI, the OS load every program I had on the 'WBStartup' drawer as usual, which
some of them asked for some stuff on the ENV: and T: devices (which are not
mounted at this moment, of course 8) )
Requirements
--------------
This program requires at least OS2.xx. Anyway, it would not be of any use
to users of OS1.3, since this OS don't have the WBStartup thing.
Also the DOS comms:
- Setpatch
- Rename
- Wait
- LoadWB
