No Scotty, it was definitely as I called it, a useless but fascinating excercise. It acted as if I had done a CD DF1: Since it is just as easy to do that from the startup-sequence, it's no big deal. The fascination comes into it when you think about why the Kickstart code didn't barf with a checksum error. Another interesting block is 1F9 (or thereabouts. It has the strings, "Movebytes", "Xref", and "Chksum" in there.
