- The AMAX patch loader is a RATHER involved process, so read this
- doc file thru before attempting to install eveything.
-
- You must FIRST copy the file "ROM_Utility" from this disk to AMAX
- format using the file transfer software that is provided with AMAX.
- MAKE SURE that you set the file type to be MAC BINARY!!!
-
- Once you have transfered the "ROM_Utility" file to some disk, make a
- COPY of your system disk (hard drive users need not do this). Copy
- the "ROM_Utility" (already on an AMAX formatted disk) into your
- SYSTEM FOLDER.
-
- Ok...now, format a blank disk in AMAX format.
-
- Go to pull down menu (in AMAX) and select RE-START.
-
- Ok, now, go to the CONTROL PANEL and set all of these the way you would
- ALWAYS like them to come up for you. Now, you will notice a new CONTROL
- PANEL utility....ROM UTILITY. Click on this utility and you will see
- lots of info about AMAX. You may change any of the options as you like.
- When you are finished, click on SAVE IMAGE. When it asks you for a
- name for the file to be saved, type (erase previous name if necessary):
- ROM_Image, and press RETURN. There should now be disk access and the
- file is saved to the blank formatted disk that you made earlier.
-
- OK...now, using once again the File Transfer software provided with AMAX,
- transfer the file "ROM_Image" that you created to the any AMIGA disk. DO
- NOT HAVE ANY file conversion turned on (dont use MAC BINARY this time).
-
- Now, you can quit AMAX.
-
- Ok, copy the ROM_Image file that you transfered to some Amiga disk into
- the SAME directory or path that the SYBIL disk is located at. That means
- that you should probably make a copy of the SYBIL disk and copy the
- ROM_Image file to the copy of the disk. Hard drive owners can just
- place the ROM_Image file into the same directory as the SYBIL software.
-
- That is it for the install...
-
- By running the LOADER (Amax Patch) program, you are loading the ROM_Image
- into memory and that is how our patch works. With this method, we do not
- have to worry about patching software updates from ReadySoft, since the
- ROM_Utility is a real MAC program.
