just tried it on my system (boot 2.1, software 4.1 (b)) and it did indeed boot from the v6 floppies i made up... now what i need to do is to upgrade the system software on the unit itself from the v6 disks, as the softkey f2/f4 just let me boot from floppy that one time.... i will try out booting from other discs in the v6 package tomorrow to see if i cantransfer the system over.. once again, can anyone remember the pdf that had all these software upgrade instructions in? if i had that, i wouldn't need to keep bugging you all about it ;) i'm stoked that i actually got it to boot from floppies, something that i thought wasn't possible without original discs :) andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Hooks" <markhooks@earthlink.net> To: "Techtoolslist" <Techtoolslist@flippers.com> Sent: Thursday, September 28, 2006 4:43 PM Subject: [Techtoolslist] booting 9100 from floppies
"just hold down SOFTKEY-F2-F4 " Just to remind those trying this, you must first upgrade the ROMs on the PCB before that command works. I tried it with version 2 ROMs and it wouldn't recognize that series of keystrokes.
