Bob, I *think* (but don't take it to the bank) that the only thing you
need to do (for os9 anyway) is check the manual for the init modules
format, and change a byte thats now set to $3F in the standard init
module to an $FF. This byte sets (ISTR) the top page of ram that the os
maps in while its booting. Don't forget to verify the module to fix the
crc after you've located it and edited it with dEd.
There may be other fixes required, but thats the only one that comes to
mind and I'm 1000 miles NW of my disks right now so I can't check any
closer than my wet ram.
