Hmmm, being the subject is about prepping for X, I just realized something about turning off the Start-Up Memory Test. Does the process apply to OSX?
I assume (possibly in error) that OSX still performs the test of the memory when booting up? But obviously there is no Memory CP in X to turn off. So, does a test of ram occur? Is there a yet unrevealed method to turn it off, thereby allowing X to come alive sooner? I don't recall anything in XPF and there are no setting is the prefs. Could there be something in the Root? Or, because XPF jumpstarts OSX (if it does this continuously in our machines?), then does whether there is a start up test depend on what we set it at while last in OS9?
