RE: HDBoot
The ComSpec is not to `Commodore Spec' (pun intended, but true)
so don't get confused. Commodore will boot from the HD at some point and
when CBM announces a standard, all of us guys will adhere to it. From our
position, we have been able to bend our existing controller to work with
FFS and any other changes CBM has made so far and we are anticipating offering
upgrades to comply with HDBoot specs for all of our existing controllers
(500, 1000 and 2000). Our controller design is such that it can be changed
as required, and our requirements are to comply with what CBM dictates.
