                            Boot Up v1.0

Introduction

This program was written by SPY from SENSOR for everybody to use !!
It is so simple in handling that almost anyone can use it.
With this program you can put up to 9 programs in your boot.
Some things you can and cannot do will be explaned later on.

Now lets start the explenation

When you want to use the program be sure that the ARP-library is in the
directory 'libs'.
No extra parameters are required, just type boot-up(return)
At first the program will check your memory for any possible virus,
this might as well be a anti-virus etc.. But i have to be sure that what
ever is in your memory isn't something dangerous, because writing a boot
while a virus is in your memory is a useless thing to do!
When there is a virus in your memory turn of your computer and check
this disk and all the others you use (using guardian??!), but be sure
that the disk that containes guardian isn't infected!!!!!!

When you have a memory expansion the program will quit !!
Turn it off and try again..

This version is completely controlled with the mouse..

Use the LOADPRG gadget to load a program in your memory..

When something is wrong with the file, read-error or something like that
it will be displayed on your screen just above 'boot up' .

When everythings allright the program will be loaded in your memory.

You might get a  'key 880 checksum error' but thats normal with a disk
that start from the boot.(click 'cancel' twice!!!)
Be sure that the disk is well formatted!

When you want the program to be appended to the other program(s) on
your 'boot up' disk then click the 'APPEND OFF' gadget so that it
says 'APPEND ON', now when the disk you want to write to has already
got a loader it will append the program!!!

Click the 'WRITE TO DF0:' gadget to write the program to df0: !!

You can click on the 'EXIT' gadget, to exit the program..

This version is totaly compatible with the 'multi-boot' program !

                            Multi-Boot v1.0

Introduction

This program was written by SPY from SENSOR for everybody to use !!
It is so simple in handling that almost anyone can use it.
With this program you can put up to 9 programs in your boot.
Some things you can and cannot do will be explaned later on.

Now lets start the explenation

When you want to use the program be sure that the ARP-library is in the
directory 'libs'.
No extra parameters are required, just type multi_boot(return)
At first the program will check your memory for any possible virus,
this might as well be a anti-virus etc.. But i have to be sure that what
ever is in your memory isn't something dangerous, because writing a boot
while a virus is in your memory is a useless thing to do!
When there is a virus in your memory turn of your computer and check
this disk and all the others you use (using guardian??!), but be sure
that the disk that containes guardian isn't infected!!!!!!

When you have a memory expansion the program will not work. And the
program quits. Turn off the memory expansion and try again.

Next it displays a warning that you should read the instuctions, well
thats what your doing right now.
You can just press 'return' to continue or type 'exit' +(return) to quit.

Now you can choose a file using the file-requester.

When something is wrong with the file, read-error or something like that
it will be displayed on your screen.

When ever you are asked to press return you can also type
'exit' to quit the program.

When everythings allright the program will be loaded in your memory.

You are asked to insert destination in df0: then do that, wait until
the diskdrive stops spinning.
You might get a  'key 880 checksum error' but thats normal with a disk
that start from the boot.(click 'cancel' twice!!!)
Be sure that the disk is well formatted!

Then the bootblock from the destination disk is checked for a
SENSOR-loader boot, and when it is a SENSOR-loader it will ask
if it must append the program,that means if he must put that program
after the already present program on your disk so that it will
load as second or third etc...

When it is finished writing the program it will ask if you want to put
an other program on a disk answer 'y' or 'n'.
When you answer 'y' you start from the beginning, when you answer 'n'
the program will return to the cli.

Have fun.....
