I think its time to get out the 128 in truth. Annoying cus the two metal
cased versions I have were within my grasp today and I ignored them.
Buried behind a wall of A500s now. GEOS is very strange in the way it
interacts with the disk drive. If you get a problem with loading or any
other issue the problem will replicate even after you do a hard boot.
You do have to go leave the computer and drive for a good while before
you have another go. Getting in to GEOS is like trying to get an old
fashioned British motorbike started on the kickstart. You have to prime
the carbs and just keep kicking the thing over till it gets going. Great
fun when it does but you realise its more about the power of the disk
drive rather than the computer.
I checked out the FAQ and I guess I need some extra RAM in truth. Like I
say its probably 128 time.
