    Can anyone explain that difference in flod files? Documentation says
    something about a machine using "either one" but not why, whether they
    are exclusive to a given machine, whether they can be swapped, etc.

Paul:

G206 is the original FEP kernel release for G-Machines (3610,3620,3630,3650,3653).

G208 is a newer version which contains support for ESDI disks and CAD Buffer II.  G208 is
required only if you have those two products.  Otherwise they're identical.
