 ...Seeking Enlightment about Kickstart Checksum

Ok, I know how the Kickstart checksum is calculated by the Boot Rom.
No problem to correct the checksum on the Kickstart disk if you have
changed something. But WHERE is the REAL checksum located? (There
are LOTS of places where a long word can be changed without harm to the
OS, e.g. Commodore's Copyright notice :-) Perhaps somebody could look in
this SumKick program (which I don't have) and tell me.

Thanks in advance,
-Martin
