 Subject: RE: external floppy disk drive

Now that is what i consider helpful information!

So i stand corrected, it is possible to boot from a different
drive than A: but only for a warm start. Then, TOS looks
at $446 (_bootdev) to find out what drive to boot from. If
it contains a "1", it will boot from B:
And that's exactly what B_BOOT.PRG does.

Well, i learned something.
