Ron,
If memory serves me correctly, I had to RunBack -5 GOMF2.2 because the AmigaDOS
window would not close otherwise. (I could be wrong and can't try it out right
now.) The GOMF3.0 manual actually instructs using RunBack on WB1.2 and RUN
>NIL: for WB1.3. Again, I couldn't get a stable system without the Wait 5
statement immediately after the RUN >NIL: GOMF3.0 statement. This configuration
works reasonably well, but I actually find that I have more system problems
with GOMF installed than without. I _strongly_ suspect that my problems with it
are that I switched to KS1.3 with an autoboot HD on my A500. I suppose that if
I really got curious I could try the system with the HD turned off, but that's
kind of a pain now that I'm used to autoboot. One of these days I'll get around
to writing a letter about it.
BTW – the new NUKE command is really nice. You can run it from the WB (or from
the CLI) and you get a very nice "Task Selector" requester to use. It's a great
improvement over the CLI only NUKE command.
