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 :-).
