No, I only worked on config and autoexec on the virtual
boot disk and on config and autoexec which are installed.

The idea was to help people debugging things. Actually if TED3 is
there, and text files are max 64k, then PG is not needed. MORESYS
would be a smaller alternative to MORE which also uses no pipes.

This it part of the GRUB for DOS boot menu. I think that is
not used any more. Also removing the GRLDR part would save
150k on the cdrom and in the root directory of the target drive.

That would be 2.11

PS: I did not test if Jazz actually works with NOEMS
with 2.10, but basically Jazz always worked in the past.
And I just recently started using Stargunner as a test
case, probably to test 2.10 ...
