For 2 years I have auto booted off a hard disk.
I have used the Bypass program by Small in Start magazine to save me
when the /auto or .acc program went bad and the system wouldnt boot.

This program allowed the disk driver (aka AHDI.PRG) to be read in from the
floppy, and the hard disk wasn't accessed.  Then I could fix the problem.

Now, I find it is incompatible with TOS1.4 .  Not unexpected! 

What now?  Does anyone have a similar program that works on tos1.4???
(Dave Small, are you listening?)
