    When I ran the test last night, I didn't "boot into other partitions", I
just turned on the power and the IIe booted using the programs in the fourth
partition.

    True.

    True.

    My test proved to me that, to boot either ProDOS or GS/OS, the program
"PRODOS" needs only to be in the first ProDOS partition, not the first
partition.
