   Falcon030 (TOS 4.02)
   ---------

   TOS 4.02 is the second version of TOS currently shipped in the
   Falcon030


        Formats:  1 chip ROM (PLCC-Chip) a 512KByte

       Machines:  Falcon030

      Utilities:  FPATCH1.PRG, FPATCH2.PRG

   This little patch fixes two problems in the Falcon BIOS
   (TOS 4.00-4.04)

   (1) Sound is not initialized properly.
   (2) Bconmap() doesn't work.

   To use it, copy FPATCH2.PRG to your AUTO folder.

   This patch supersedes FPATCH1.PRG. The former worked by hooking
   into the BIOS trap and intercepting Bconxxx calls. This patch
   fixes the Bconmap problem directly (by setting the Bconmap table
   size nach its correct value) und hence requires no resident code.
   It also has the benefit of allowing the Falcon LAN port to be
   accessed via the BIOS.

          Notes:  This version is only avaible in the Falcon030.  It
                  isn't available for upgrading.
