Subject: Re: Plugging a ROM

Well, the next available ROM slot is '8'.  I am using emulator  -
nonetheless none of the hardware modes are recognizing the existence of
the two ROM's I put into the 'BeebFile' directory, where I'm sure the
ROM images go.  I try *Help, or *Roms (command works while Acorn DFS is
running and not Watford) and I can't see the ROM listed.

Fiaz.
