Not on a Sorcerer, really. It's part of the main memory map, and is
there as soon as it's switched on; it's not somehow "loaded" (the way
ROM packs are on, say, a BBC Micro) - though you can load other things.
In many cases where the BASIC software was not on ROM
it has been
separated from the computer long ago.
I've never seen a Sorcerer that has lost its BASIC, though I've seen
many that have additional ROM PACs.
