am using DKB multistart w/1.3 and 2.0 roms on my A2000/040 system with 0
problems. worked first time. nice product and i'm recommending it for
customers who want both roms in their system (switching over to 2.0 is
something to consider if it will burn your bridges back to 1.3 – some
customers don't want to be left with only 2.0). I wrote a couple little
script files which let me have dual 'devs', 'libs', etc. directories. One
script renames everything right to prepare for rebooting in 2.0 (I named
the script, cleverly, ChangeTo2.0). The other script (for changing back to
1.3) renames everything back to what it was. My hard drive has some extra
space taken up by the dual 'devs', etc. but it's worth it to be able to
switch back and forth easily. BTW I did NOT reformat my drives under 2.0.
Not necessary, at least with my trusty TrumpCardPro. Good luck with the
DKB. I did hear there were some possible problems with it on an A500, but
haven't heard any confirmation of that.
