Hmm, somebody mentioned somewhere [;-)] that CHEETAH only works with ICD BGM
Partitions.

Hmm, let's see if I can find the Docs ...

Yep, here we go:

So, it doesn't say it won't work with Atari BGM Partitions but it says it
supports ICD's format which seems not to be the same as the Atari format.

G'day Mick
