In the recent versions of the Software Supplement, there is a Restart procedure that does just what you want. To use this method from 68000 ML this is the necessary magic code: MOVE.L ROMStart,A0 ; (ROMStart=$2AE) ADD.W #10,A0 ; (decimal 10, hex $A) JMP (A0) Since it is OK'd by Apple, I assume this code will work on all existing and future "Macintoshes" including the XL.
