A member from our local users group is having trouble with his Amiga 2000
doing a warm reboot. I am not sure what is going on. Here is a letter from
him explaining what happens. Thanks for any and all help!

Doug, since I talked to you last, I noticed that you were right, it does seem
that the startup sequence is not executing on the warm boot.

Here's the message for you:

I am using an A2000 with a Bridgeboard.  I have experienced a problem that
occurs when doing a warm boot of a workbench disk which has the PC files as
well as the startup for a Western Digital Filecard, which is installed as a PC
hard disk with an Amiga partition.  On a warm boot with the very same
workbench disk, (for example, after a guru) the hard disk spins and I get
something that looks like an AmigaDOS screen, but without the DOS prompt. It
appears that the startup sequence has stopped executing, but I don't
understand why it should perform differently on a warm boot than a cold boot.
Any ideas??  Thanks much.

Thank you Doug, for your concern.  Its not really a major problem, just a
minor irritant.
