A friend of mine has the Multistart A500 from DKB. He has v1.3 and v2.04 ROMs installed. It allows you to software switch between ROMs - I cannot remember how he did it but I think he booted up from floppy initially and, depending on the ROMs selected, finished the boot from either a 2.0 or 1.3 hard drive partition. I think the Multistart works with A500 motherboards Rev. 5 or lower and most A2000s. There is one for the A1000 also. Magazine prices are around $72.00US to $79.95US. I do not know what an A500+ is so do not know if it will function with the Multistart. |
