Hello Neil Bothwick
On 09-Mar-01, Neil remarked about Re: Stall while loading:

I've tried HappyENV, but some programs seem to have issues with it...
So I did the obvious.
In the startup-sequence there is an IF-Then part. If a certain directory
exists on a certain on hard drive, Then ENV is loaded from there. The boot drive
just keeps on going as the ENV is loaded from another physical drive. Since
all my drives are SCSI-II, it is quite fast.
