I changed the system over last night, priority, names devices etc. and am
now booting from the SCSI drive, quite a bit faster I would say.
Found 68060.lib V46.7
68040.lib V46.5
68040.dummy V46.5 Is this instead of 68040new?
The earlier versions are what were shipped with the board. Also found
later versions of CPU060 and Rom2fast commands.
Should all these be installed?
