Freeboot revisitedSat 18th January 2020
Once upon a time I had to sell my Oric to buy an Atari ST.
Unfortunately I barely managed to get enough money to get myself a Singled Sided floppy drive model, which quickly proved to be an issue since most people were swapping around double sided floppy disks.
To solve the issue, I bought an external Double Sided Cumana floppy drive, which allowed me to access all these floppies... but not boot on them!
Enters the FreeBoot!
