This checklist serves as a guide in making sure you have hit on all the files and areas of code necessary to make sure the end user has a functional UI and the system is healthy enough to take logons.

If you are not sure about how to answer some of the questions, it should be OK to accept the default value given to you. You should, however, read the description of each of the items so you can understand how the BBS will use the information. {| class="wikitable |- |+Main Parameters Descriptions ! Questio..."

The first one you will be running is “+SETUP” to configure your BBS and you will be using it frequently as things change in your BBS. When you load and run one of these files, several things occur: * An initial reset occurs (the screen clears, and the colors go back to default). The reset is done to make sure the system is ready to load the necessary programs. * Addition..."

All the boot programs begin with a "+" (plus sign) symbol; the +bbs program you copied to the boot files is an example of this. Creating these boot programs is very important because you set some important parameters for the system, such as whether you are using the SwiftLink RS-232 cartridge. The bootmaker utility creates your..."

Below are the needed files for your Program drive as well as the Boot files for the boot disk. For larger disk systems, you can combine these two into one singular drive/area. For 1541 floppy disk users, the Boot Drive files will be your Boot disk. For 1571 users, if your program files disk has 700 or more blocks available, you can include the boot fil..."

This is exactly what the "√sys.ramove" program does, because it is a BASIC "script" program that uses the Script-Merge utility designed by myself. A script is simply a set of instructions that are executed as if you typed them in f..."

There are many different types of high-speed modems, some of which may not be compatible with others because of the diverse "standards" set down by different companies. If you plan to use a high-speed modem, you should invest in one that can handle many different communications protocols. Some of the more co..."

Without using the SwiftLink interface, you should find that your C64 and Color 64 can handle 2400 baud file transfers with very few errors. Here is how I recommend you configure your modem to set up your system for 2400 baud. Hayes Smart modems come from the factory with DTR and CARRIER DETECT forced true. The 1200 baud modems had switches while the 2400 modems don't. Instead, they h..."

Once your system has been modified, you will not be able to use the overlays with a true Hayes-compatible modem, so MAKE A BACKUP of all the overlays to be changed. Merge the following files into the specified overlays: <ul style="list-style: none;"><li>ava.init -> √bbs.init..."

The system will only take advantage of the interface on device 8, however. As such, you will need to make sure the 1541 to be used with the interface is device 8. To fit all your program files on the 1541 disk, you will have to leave out a couple overlays, either the "√bbs.ov2" and "√bbs.ov3" overlays, or the "√bbs.nw1" or "√bbs.nw2" overlays."

If you also have a CMD HD, you can use the parallel cable and have your overlays load in a flash. If you have a 17XX series REU from Commodore and you do not wish to use it as extra RAM on the RamLink, you can also use it with RAMDOS. Just follow the instructions in your RamLink manual for accessing the REU "as is" (i.e. "direct" mode), then follow the regular Color 64 installation instructi..."

You can allocate your disk space in almost any configuration you can think of, dividing the storage up into partitions. The CMD HD's Native Mode partitions also support subdirectories, which allow you to dynamically allocate space to individual file directories. The only "requirement" for using the CMD HD might be this: If you plan to have your Program F..."

It supports up to 9 different partitions of disk space called Logical Units, and each of these units has 15 "users" which are like subdirectories. This can mean you can have up to 135 separate file directories. Color 64 will NOT be able to use the Lt. Kernal and RAMDOS at the same time, if you have an REU in configuration with the HD. To use the Lt. Kernal HD on the 64, you must..."
