I don't boot that often, under normal >conditions. More than any of the other comments, this answers my question. You see, I prefer doing "execute some-file-full-of-assigns-to-another-disk" instead of rebooting. So I swap in my customized Manx disk and do "execute df1:rc" and I'm all set to do compiles. I guess there isn't a lot of difference between this and rebooting, except that I find that rebooting takes longer. Probably depends on one's startup-sequence, though. Mine switches to vd0: early on.
