    Default silly? questions about maps

    hi
    im running GarminXT on my N95 8GB and its been working very well. just curious to know if the app will run the same if i remove the worldwide roads base map (gmapbmap.img)? what's it actually for?

    also what's the difference between having your map named as gmapsupp and gmapprom?

    thanks.

    1st question dunno
    apart from the basemap mapprom is the primary map and if you install another set of maps they become the mapsup eg maps from 2010 and 2012 working both togeter on on the same device

    But it will give basic nav on major roads if you stuff up the ##sup or ##prom install.
