The program is runbootblock, which 22 will be found in the amiga/installation/misc directory. 23 24[atari] 25 The xbase.tgz set that was available before "Sep 16 13:57" 26 was a "shared" copy with other m68k ports. However, as the 27 atari currently requires its own copy of this set this was 28 corrected on that time. 29 30 The sum entries for the correct set are: 31 BSDSUM 29517 2522 xbase.tgz 32 CKSUM 4259307667 2581755 xbase.tgz 33 MD5 MD5 (xbase.tgz) = 7b65569fd7143ff1c8baf86a19c04f61 34 SYSVSUM 15857 5043 xbase.tgz 35 36[m68k MACHINE_ARCH, including: amiga, atari, mac68k, x68k] 37 A problem with the floating point emulator used by certain 38 Motorola 680x0-based systems can cause erratic faults in 39 applications that use floating point calculations. 40 Systems using the 68020 or 68030 microprocessor but lacking 41 a 68881 or 68882 floating point processor may be vulnerable 42 to the flaw. 43 This issue may affect both installation and normal operation. 44
