- Unless you have a RAMFast, you can only boot the first partition
- of a hard drive. Another option is putting both Systems on the
- first partition and renaming them as needed.
- ie: 5.0.4: System504
- 6.0: System
-
- System 6 will boot.
-
- 5.0.4: System
- 6.0: System6
-
- System 5.0.4 will boot.
-
- This assumes the ProDOS file in the root directory is compatible with
- both Systems, else it too would need to be renamed.
-
- Or you could junk the unstable program.
