1) get the diskROM replaced (eg. by a Novaxis). That should be no problem.
   I let Erik Maas do it on my proto-HSH...
   The only thing you need then are the tools (nfdisk) to partition a ZIP
   disk.  My original HSH had the problem that it recognized only 1 device,
   which had to be at id #0 or #1.  If you plan to use the 'mobile' version
   of the ZIP, keep in mind that that thing can only be used as #5 or #6...

2) Put MSXDOS2.SYS and COMMAND2.COM on _all_ partitions, so you won't have
   trouble booting the system if the A: partition gets corrupted. (Holds
   for harddisks, too, by the way :-))

3) Keep your HD, if you already have one. Or you won't be able to copy
   (large) things between two ZIP disks easily :-)

        Eric (MSX & ZIP (& PC & all the rest) just collecting dust
              at the moment :-( )
