Also the ProDOS 8 version provided on the Vulcan and the floppy disks has been patched to allow ProDOS 8 to use four ProDOS partitions from the Vulcan instead of only two. The Separate Disks The 3.5” disk is a backup of the files necessary to boot GS/OS. It also contains the Vulcan’s utilities such as the native mode driver, partition manager, Backup II, and a modified ProDOS 8. If you want to reconfigure your partitions, you won’t have to backup our utilities. The 5.25” disk is two sided.
