 This install applies to "Fraction Action" © 1986 Unicorn Software.

 Requirements:
 -------------
 This install requires WHDLoad to be in the path.
 It can be found in the WHDLoad package.
 To install from a different drive than DF0: select installation mode Expert.

 The installed game requires 0.5 MB ChipMem (+0.8 MB OtherMem for preload and
 Kickstart ROM).

 It can be quit by pressing F10 (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").

 The game requires an installed A500 Kickstart 1.3 image.
 The kickstart image must be located in the directory "Devs:Kickstarts" and
 must be named "kick34005.A500". The image can be extracted from a A500 with
 tools like 'GrabKick' or similar which can be found on aminet.
 If the image is of wrong version or altered in any way WHDLoad will quit with
 an appropriate message.
 Additionally the file "kick34005.A500.RTB" must be installed in the same
 directory as the kickstart image. It can be found in the archive
 "util/boot/skick346.lha" on aminet.



 Features:
 ---------
 - Full load from HD
 - Protection removed (Herndon HLS encrypted executable, disk checks)
 - Copperlist problem fixed
 - NewIcon (created by me)
 - Source code included
 - Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'F10')

 Returned from a great holiday in Gran Canaria, checked my mails and
 received a few requests for patches by Matt so I quickly started doing
 the first one. It wasn't much work anyway as the protection (same old
 HLS encryption) was 99% the same as that for Decimal Dungeon so I could
 easily reuse my old code.

 Enjoy the game from HD.
