Hmm, Im not real sure what your trying to say, but your using the word
'Installer' and I know that in many of the SOS programs, people include the
program called 'Install' into their Grouped file because it is necessary to
run that program under SOS. The point of the Install program is to move all of
the SOS libraries or I think just any program beginning with 'Z' to the end of
the program table, so the libraries can be used correctly. They are all
identical though, and delete itself after the first use... Am I completely
going in the wrong direction and telling ya something you already know...? Im
not sure what you mean then. Lets see, you have ROM version 1.02? Will this
run SOS in the first place? Well, describe a little more where your actually
having trouble...
