Also – I don't think that the "have to have NO floppy" is any different from having to have a "PARTICULAR" floppy in there to make it boot. Actually, if you have to have NO floppy or a non-bootable floppy, I think that there is no difference at all in the requirements on the user. Sort of mentally-topologically speaking, of course. <grin>

Ben, What they want (ask them) is to have ANY floppy in the drive, and knowing that if they want a 'nonstandard (for them)' environment, that they need a prticular floppy in the drive. -larry

Larry – that's not hpow autoboot works. If you have "any" floppy in the drive, the system MAY boot from it, if it's bootable. They wouyld have to mark each and every floppy, and look at it, in order to be certain where (if) the system was going to boot. And I did ask them. Let's sit back and see who answers, and waht they say. –Ben–
