Interesting - I hadn't thought to try call 911 without the ROM being
initialized, but as you say, it works fine!
I'll swap my BX out for the non-development one though.
I've noticed that if you go into REXMGR and re-select the Cleuseau ROM, it
installs. Until power up, but that is a less error-prone method of
installing, for me at least.

Thanks guys!
