   Hi all:   
         Well yeh, OS4 pre-release finally got here! It was announced om May 21   
   that Hyperion was shipping them. Delivered on 8 July says a lot about their   
   shoestring system! =:o   
        So, I already slipped on the first banana getting the new firmware to   
   the A1. Amiga says floppy dev=df0 and linux says dev=fd0. Doh!   
      
   dd if=updater.image of=/dev/fd0  is the proper linux command.   
      
       Currently, I'm thinking about the partions for MultiMediaToolbox to   
   setup. Since OS4 is still a pre-release, it might be a good idea to include   
   linux on the same RDB harddrive and the option of dual boot! =:o   
      
      One thing that's been disturbing are the few cases of not getting online   
   with OS4. Gack, that's via RoadShow and your current modem connections. I'm   
   using Comcast cable modem. I have no idea what to expect?    
      
   Cheers for now, Dennis
