The manuals says:



The default configuration settings of the CMOS RAM have been changed:

?      There is no need to change the configuration of your computer when
installing the alternative ROM - their settings will not change. (The new
default settings will only take effect if you ever have to reset the CMOS
RAM, using an 'R power-on'.)

?      If you are using an Econet network, you should make sure that both your
configured fileserver and printserver have a network number specified as
well. If you are running multiple networks, you will already have done this.
If you are running a single network you should use *CO. F S 0. 254 rather
than *CO. FS 254 , which will give unpredictable results; likewise you
should use *CO. PS 0.235
