Summary: 2.0 stalls Mac on external drive

Details: Both 2.0 and 1.52 cause problems when they are on an external drive. The machine boots fine on a cold boot, but on restart the alias in the extensions folder to Python core can't find the original file as the drive is not yet mounted and so the machine doesn't get past the Happy Mac. (This is on system 8.1). Perhaps it would work better if the original was in the system folder and the alias was in the Python folder?
