On a Diffrent Note, (kinda Diff but related to this)

I have an AMIGA and just got a Nifty Program A64 and ya got it it's a
PD (well Not PD but kinda) Program that Emulates a C64, the neat thing is i can use my 880k amiga Floppies as Drives for it.

it i can set device 8 to be my Ram: drive then a 

load"*",8,1 would load the First file offa my RAM: drive, 
(Hopefully trhis is a 64 prog... :^}  )

Thing is i WANT to run GEOS, and geos uses FAST disk type Routines.
and it is KEY disk protected.....

so
1) How do i deprotect GEOS? (to install it on my AMIGA floppie)
2) Any way to disable the Fast Drive Rpoutines?

IS Geos Dieing out? It was The neatest thing i'd seen for the 64 for a 
Long time, and i heard that Qlink was going to support AMIGA stuff.
Is it? (never heard anything about it.)

Thanx.
