Thanks for the answer.  There is a rom on the controller board but I wasn't
sure how it worked.  I'll try holding down the ALT key and see what happens.
Of course it may not work with my system (different drives).

     I think it had 2 boots for OS9 as well... hold down the ALT key or  
something). It used either track 128 or 129, from what I (vaguely)  
remember.
