Well... after some tests I have found the solution: I have to push CRTL - left AMIGA - right AMIGA for about 5 seconds.

You can also switch the ROM chips around if you want your miggy to default to the other OS on a cold boot.

Do you know the jumpers' settings?

Unfortunately I haven't any instruction sheet and I can't find anything of useful in the net.

Thanks in advance

If memory serves me correctly, the jumper setting is for selecting which ROM chip will be the default on a cold boot.

I know, that conflicts with my previous post, but the more I think about it, the more I seem to beleive this to be true.

I seem to recall also having to cut the wire off of my A500 3.1 ROM chip before installing it into the Multi-Start.

I no longer have the A500 or the Multistart. When I did, I also had the Manual, but when I sold the A500, the manual went as well.

In any case, if the unit is working now with no problems, just leave the jumper where it is.
