                                Present
                                
                          SD-Boot Version 1.0



  			  Coded & Designed by:

			    Skol + Atlantis


Introduction
------------

SD-Boot was programmed because most of the already existing bootblock
programs are of very low quality indeed, both in options and presentation.

So, thinking we could improve the quality we began to code.......

4 Coding days later, it is finished (thanks to ASPG by Abacus/Data Becker).

And whats this! crazy options like Quick Format & Fast Format how can this
be in only 1024 bytes of bootblock!

Anyway enough of the background onto the features:

Menu
----

                Memory :  ON          Drives :  ON


			  SD-Boot 1.0                    

                        F1 - Memory OFF
			F2 - Drives OFF
			F3 - Install Boot
			F4 - QFormat Df0
			F5 - FFormat Df0
			F6 - Hard Reset / Kill Virus
			F7 - Exit

F1 - Memory , F2 - Drives
-------------------------

When you enter the bootblock the options at the top will show you the
current peripheral state of the machine:

If you have a Memory expansion at $c00000 or above, Memory will display ON.
If you have either df1: or/and df2:, Drives will display ON.

Otherwise these options will display OFF.


F3 - Install Boot
-----------------

Get out a nice disk, preferably one with OmniBoot on it!!
(If Mem ON/OFF doesn`t work by version 5.1 there must be a problem kris !?!)
write enable the disk insert into df0: and press F3.....Mutation!


F4 - QFormat Df0
----------------

For a turbo format, press F4, this only clears and updates track 40.
(Rootblock, Bitmapblock and BootBlock). Only use this on pre-formated
AmigaDos disks (see F5).
If you pressed this by mistake, you can try to salvage the files, with
a disk salvage program such as DiskSalv or FixDisk as supplied on
Scorpion Development UtilityDisk v3.2


F5 - FFormat Df0
----------------

Picture it, You've just come back from the Commodore Show with 50 lovely
blank disks!!  Your mate says copy us this HOT NEW WARE , what do you
do.....risk the unformatted disks on X- (I give disks R/W errors) Copy
or boot up your favourite bootblock (our one!) , insert the nasty (cheap)
unformatted disk and press F5, then in under a minute, Hey Presto !,
nice Rootblock, BootBlock, and Bitmapblock included, yes folks this IS
now a formatted disk !!! (As used on this Realease!)


F6 - Hard Reset / Kill Virus
----------------------------

Now hopefully if you are very lucky you will never see F6 change from
Hard Reset to Kill Virus and go RED! But if you do we advise you to
press F6 and kill the bastard in memory! Then get the disk containing
the virus and stick this boot on it (Use F3).

 
F7 - Exit
---------

Continues the booting to CLI procedure, this can be done before we set
up our screen memory etc... by holding down the LMB while booting.
