The most recent issue of Open-Apple reports that you can't boot GS/OS from
a device run off of a Video Technologies Universal Drive Controller.  It
boots fine; you just have to treat it as non-removable media.

The previous issue said that you couldn't start up GS/OS by executing the
"PRODOS" file on the GS/OS disk.  This is also wrong; although it didn't
work from ProSEL on my system, it worked just fine from BASIC.SYSTEM.
