   I tried to respond to you by mail but it bounced. Yes it is possible to do
what you want. Michigan Software makes a card that will plug in internally
and allow you to have the kickstart in rom or from disk on demand. There is
also a couple of hardware hacks available. One was mentioned here on the net
about 3 or 4 months ago (I forget its name now). The other appeared in Robo
City News about 4 years ago. I have the text of that article & could send it
to you if you could give me a reliable address. Otherwise I could send it to
Xanth & let you FTP it from there. Let me know what you want to do.
