	I've been having a problem with the Magic Sac that I'd like
to get comments on..  Because the system files on a mac disk (for the
AT, in MAGIC format) take up a lot of space on the disk, I want to boot 
with a MAGIC format disk containing the system files, and then switch
to another disk which has my applications.  I can boot from the first
disk alright, and run applications off it, but then I can't get the
Magic Sac to recognize the next disk I put in after ejecting the boot
disk.  eg, I do
		a)  Run magic.prg and put in a mac disk and boot off
			it.
		b)  Eject the disk.
		c)  Put in another disk which has my applications and
		    hope the Sac will take it (I've tried pressing F1).
		d)  [..this stuff is pretty much unprintable..]

	If anyone else has encountered this, or gotten around it,
please let me know (mail or post article).   Thanks in advance,
