I have just installed CrossDos demo 3.05b and encountered some problems. CrossDos needs that I run TDPatch1.2 before using it. TDPatch fixes some bugs in trackdisk.device but I'm also using WB 1.3.2 and its SetPatch patches something in trackdisk.device, too. I have also NoClick3.6 which pathces trackdisk.device... These three program don't work together. If I have NoClick installed, TDPatch won't work. SetPatch and TDPatch seems to work. Is there any way to get NoClick and CrossDos running simultaneously? I need both of them. And then a second question: I have 68010 installed and currently I use Set68010 to get programs working. Set68010 patches Userstate function and the new SetPatch from WB1.3.2 fixes something in UserState function. Am I again making something twice? PS/2 I have also WTFPatch2 in my startup-sequence... -- // Kai Vorma * U*@%#&!x forever! * vode@niksula.hut.fi \\ \X/ <<The Vode>> * -anonymous ftp * ...mcvax!santra!niksula!vode \X/

If this is not the case, don't use ANY of the patches. remember that the CrossDOS patches patch Trackdisk on the system disk. Setpatch does it in RAM. I never heard if the bug in trackdisk was fixed for 1.3.2. If it was, then don't use any of the patches. I have used CrossDOS with NoClick3.6 together with absolutely no problems. >And then a second question: > >I have 68010 installed and currently I use Set68010 to get programs >working.

I don't use DeciGel because if someone botched a program so bad that it won't work on a 68010 (which I have) then I refuse to use it. That incompatibility was understandable back in 1986, but the 010 has been around too long to accept it. > >-- > > // Kai Vorma * U*@%#&!x forever! * vode@niksula.hut.fi \\ > \X/ <<The Vode>> * -anonymous ftp * ...mcvax!santra!niksula!vode \X/ /* F.
