I was just thinking... If one was to download a hd.device into ram, and prect it so it can't be erased by most GURU's and C-A-A, couldn't you write a patch to make the hd.device in the RAM act as the HD's ROM and make the Amiga autoboot using the hd.device in RAM? Also: A side question. How do those virus' work? What do they do to stay resident in memory after a reset and how do they run themselves if there is no boot disk in drive 0? Thanx in advance. :::> Dave Oh uucp: who knows?
