Hi all,

Jeff Shepler put kutil12.lzh in the incoming directory on cabrales for me.
This is an update I did of Bruce Isted's KUTIL program for his Eliminator.
I finally was able to get in touch with Bruce and got his permission to
release my update.

On The Eliminator, the kernel is stored on cylinder 0.  KUTIL lets you get the
kernel from and put the kernel to cylinder 0.  I modified the utility to
also work with Burke & Burke hard drive systems.  There are now two options
which will read or write the kernel to either track 128 or track 129 on the
B&B.  The FAT is update to show the track is allocated.

I've tested the update and it seems to be bug free.  If anyone should find
a bug, please let me know.  In the meantime, have fun with it.

      Bob
