-If the system is set to boot ProDOS 8 it uses the ProDOS ​contained within ​the boot blocks.+Normally, ​the Apple IIgs reads the Boot OS (ProDOS 8 or GS/OS) selection from the battery RAM (BRAM). ​ The following ​boot blocks have been modified to allow overriding the BRAM selection by two methods: Press ''​8''​ or ''​G''​ before the "​Starting Up Over the Network"​ message appears to select ​ProDOS 8 or GS/OS respectively,​ or modify ​the ''​ProDOS16 Image''​ file at $0204 to have 0 for firmware decides (default), 1 for GS/OS, and 2 for ProDOS ​8.

 +    * This will allow booting to ProDOS 8 without having ​the machine freeze. 
 +    * Geoff'​s ''​ATALKIRQ''​ PIF is not required and should not be installed if this image is used.

 +Note that ProDOS 2.4.x seems to have trouble being part of the GS/OS boot blocks ​and crashes to the monitor.
  
-**These do not work yet, ProDOS 2.4.x doesn'​t seem to be compatible with some part of the GS boot process**
