Domminick,
There is a program SETPREFS somewhere on a CIS Amiga Forum that you can
include in your disk startup-sequence to get the system-configuration from
your harddrive. This way if you 'assign' the harddrive and change
preferences, you can always boot and have the new preference changes. Of
course, you can copy the system-configuration file to the disk if you wish.
I use it for an Amiga 2000 with a non-autobooting 2090 card.
Actually, I boot with a very stripped boot disk which just uses Bindriver
and Setpatch then runs a startup-sequence file on the harddrive's S
directory which I can change without the fear of which disk I boot from. I
can change the startup-sequence or preferences without worries. The only
hitch: You must copy 'devs:system-configuration' to the boot floppy if you
change preferences to Interlaced WorkBench as Setprefs will not do this.
PS: Most games I either boot from the game disk or I boot as above,
then run the game from floppy disk. I have never had a problem
in either case. PSS: Then againg, the only games I get are Simulators,
ie: flight,
tank, jet, helicopter, etc. *JohnB* CIS:76256,3436
