I got this today, I'm not really sure how to help as I've never used 
Econet. (I did suggest *OPT4,x though.) I pointed him/her to the 
appropriate place on The BBC Lives! so he/she can join the mailing list.

Hi
im sorry to bother you but i have a few problems with our BBC econet network
from your page you seem the best to ask
they are probably simple problems but im used to PCs
how do i get a machine to auto-boot? the !boot file is there but it wont
read it :(
and the other refuses to boot at all
when it starts it says something like:
BBC basic
DFS (some number somewhere)
bit vague i know sorry

the DFS isnt on the rest and i cant find how to set it back to the rest
if you could help id be most grateful thank you

helping people)
