I recently bought an EGA for my AT.  I don't have the extra bucks
necessary for a color display (yet!), so I will be making do with my
monochrome monitor.

The system has partitions for DOS and Xenix and I typically flip
between the two system depending on what I am working.  My problem
arises from the fact that the version of Xenix that I have (IBM Version
1.0) will not boot with the EGA installed.

I found a patch from the net, but apparently it fixes the problem for
a  system with an EGA and color display.  Does anyone know of a patch
for Xenix that allows use of the EGA with a monochrome monitor?  Please
email any replies.  Thanks.
