i'm waiting for my DKB multistart before I begin installing the new
roms (I want to be able to use 1.3 when necessary). I only read the
instructions for the roms briefly – the jumpers are on the rom itself
and connect two of the pins. you cut the jumper for use with newer
American motherboards – leave in place for older and German
motherboards. At least that's the gist of it for A2000 use – I didn't
even look at the A500 installation instructions yet. It doesn't look
complicated, but don't quote me on the details. Wait for the
official ROM to come to your local dealer. I want to be prepared for
my customers needs so I'm going to take the plunge soon. I have no
way to know if the final commercial release ROMs will have the
jumpers or not – maybe they will be supplied both ways per the
dealer's order. pure speculation until we all see the official
commercial release. I only posted the news to encourage those who
think it will take as long for the 2.0 to appear as it did for the
Toaster. The light is beginning to become visible at the end of the
2.0 tunnel.
