Workbench 3.1 Guide 5/12 - Editing the Startup Sequence - by LemonAmiga.com
32Now that we have installed Workbench 3.1 into a native PC folder, and taken a tour of Workbench, it is time to find out how to alter the boot up sequence of the OS. For this we need to use the ED command, and locate a special file in the S folder called Startup-sequence.

For those new to Workbench, the operating system can feel a bit like an Apple Mac, in that there is precious little we can do without the help of applications and tools. In order to get behind the scenes, we need to know about the DOS command lines, and the disk structure that we wish to edit. In the previous part, we looked at this structure, so now it is time to fire up the ED command, and take a basic tour of the startup-sequence, line by line.
In order to add extra functions, simply make a new line somewhere and write in the new function command. For example, if you use WBblaze, you might add 'run c:wbblaze', and this will search C for the command, and run it.
Next time we are looking at my own startup-sequence, which can be a bit mind boggling to understand. I explain what my startup-sequence does, which operates a multi-boot system.
