Help! Serious help! I had a problem, a solution was offered: > "No K directive" messages appear when you use the symbol '>' or > '<' for input/output redirection in a script file. > This ambiguity causes your problem. To solve this, redefine the brackets > using the BRA and KET commands (see your AmigaDOS manual): > .BRA { > | Dan Barrett - Systems Administrator, Computer Science Department Unfortunatly, this isn't it. The original problem remains: my amiga locked up, I killed the power, then tried to reboot. My startup-sequence on disk does binddrivers, then mounts hard drive partition dh1: (I don't have the 1.3 ROM), then has the line execute dh1:s/startup-sequence which completes my startup. It always worked perfectly before. Now, after the lockup/crash, it fails. It tells me Execute no K directive execute failed return code 20 and refuses to execute the file and dumps me to the cli. When I then manually type "execute dh1:s/startup-sequence" it continues perfectly! There are NO '<' or '>' involved! And why would it not do it in the startup now, after the crash, when it worked perfectly before? And why can I then immediatly type it in manually and have it work? And why does it, after I do type it in manually, repeat the error with another execute line in dh1:s/startup-sequence UNLESS I've run GOMF3.0 before it, in which case it executes perfectly fine? I need a permanent fix, did I really blow out a memory location or something? Help help help!!! ANYONE that can tell me how to get it to do that first execute, please! This was a tried-and-true startup-sequence that now inexplicably no longer works! And it has not '>' or '<''s!!!!! *sob* *cry* sandy ------------ Sandy Antunes "the Waupelani Kid" 'cause that's where I live... antunes@astro.psu.edu Penn State Astronomy Dept --- "once in a lifetime there comes a time... but this ain't it" ---
