A simple bootstrap loader would do the trick, right? Why a complete SMSQ/E in EPROM? As far as I remind, TT has written such one, having it it one of my TT disks (for Atari).

Hmm, so why use it in an EPROM?
You need some kind of ROM to boot the machine and load the OS. This can be a separate loader, like inside the Q68, but then it needs to access mass storage to load the OS. In case of the Q40 and Q60, the OS can boot completely without any mass storage, which is faster. _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List
