Okay gang, here is a simple question for you all to help me figure out. I am not a programmer, but a skilled user. I have had my Amiga for 2 years now, and happily with the advent of kickstart 1.3, and Workbench 1.3, I expanded my system with a 64meg ST-277N SCSI HD and have had fun setting up startup-sequences with this new DOS. With or without the hard drive or controller hooked up I keep getting `pure bit not set' feeds on the CLI startup screen with my startup-sequence. WHY? Here it is: C:CD C: AddBuffers DF0: 10 AddBuffers DF1: 10 AddBuffers DH0: 10 AddBuffers DH1: 10 AddBuffers DH2: 10 SetPatch Echo.... Sys:System/FastMemFirst BindDrivers ; using the Comspec A2000 SCSI Host Controller and softw ; Resident C:Resident pure Resident C:Assign pure Resident C:MakeDir pure Resident CLI L:Shell-Seg SYSTEM pure add Resident C:Execute pure Resident C:CD pure ; MakeDir RAM:clipboards MAkeDir RAM:env MakeDir RAM:t ; Assign CLIPS: RAM:clipboards Assign ENV: RAM:env Assign T: RAM:t ; Mount NewCON: FailAt 11 Mount Aux: Mount Pipe: Mount Speak: ; SetClock Load FF >NIL: -0 ; Resident Assign remove Resident MakeDir remove Resident Mount remove Resident Resident remove ; SYS:System/SetMap USA1 Path RAM: C: SYS:Utilities SYS:System S: SYS:Prefs add Copy SYS:RAMDisk.info to RAM:Disk.info LoadWB delay Delete RAM:Disk.info CD SYS: C:EndCLI I gave you the whole shooting match, just in case you have questions on what the whole thing contains. *Note: I haven't actually entered the AddBuffers DH# series of commands as my Chassis is out for repairs(an A500 Subsystem expansion chassis), nevertheless, the `pure bit not set' message pops up when this startup-sequence is on the inboard floppy with no peripherals attached. I am adding the DH# stuff in hopes of speeding up my ST-277N from 120K/sec reads to the touted near 300K/sec reads. RS * QNet 1.03a2: CONNECTed II 'THE BBS' - Peterborough, Can. (705) 743-7296.

The one your having trouble withing is the pure bit. When you copied the V1.3 commands onto your disk, you must have used a copy program that does not support the 1.3 file extensions. What you need to do is: Protect c:resident p add ;This will add the pure bit to the resident file. You need to do that with all the resident commands; Assign, Makedir, etc. Compair you C: directory with the C: directory on you 1.3 dist disk, using list. You will see the files that need pure bit set. -- -- // Kurt Hawkes // khawkes@beach.cis.ufl.edu University of Florida \\ // \X/ Amiga 2000

When you copied the files across the pure bit didn't come across too. Either copy then again using CLONE this time or PROTECT then to set the pure bit. ------ All opinions are mine and do not..... etc. --------------------- | Amigas have 4097 colours, | | Alan Thomson | | the last being Octarine - | | Digital Equipment Corp. | | the colour of MAGIC !! | | Ayr, Scotland. | athomson%ayov10.dec@decwrl.dec.com
