Brett, I was talking about the hdbdos.rom that Aaron tried to install in the the becker.dll. It will not auto boot if the MPI is set to that slot, it crashes. It still has to be loaded externally or renamed "disk11.rom".

lol... just emailed Aaron, about this.  I didn't realize the old Vcc's
HDBDOS
rom is broken?  Ok.. David Ladd was the other dude working on that.
I'll have to
prod him on IRC :)

I'm drooling for a Linux port.
