DUA2 seems to work, I also used DUA2 to install the mini
root.... using rd2 does not work in my case. I guess the problem is that
the boot process does not find the floppy...
Another question, looking though the include files.... in
include/ka410.h there are memory cards up to 14MB defined,
.
#define KA410_CFG_12MB 0x06
#define KA410_CFG_14MB 0x07
installing the sys directory I could not find that these are used... Is
that correct???
(guess it is already corrected but compiling boot, make complained about
the Makefile, 'clean::' one : to much)
