Yeah. You just moved the free space out of the way of the image
you loaded. That is the right thing to do, now we just need to make
this happen

Let's take Cort's suggestion and break the loader. Make it work
correctly for the Prep machines. I will then take that and make
minor changes for the 8xx ports. I am considering throwing out
all of the hacks for the MBX (inet addresses and stuff). I have
only two goals for the 8xx ports. One, it should load in a small
memory (less than 4 Meg) configuration. Two, it should load
from a high memory flash rom address. I am willing to toss the 4M
goal because I don't think you can do anything useful in that
amount of space (you can't use a ramdisk).

I should do that too :-).
