I believe that everything I am going
to ask about has been discussed in the past, but I did not
but I did not pay attention then as I did not have at
Amiga 2000 at the time.
My problem is with binddrivers, it seems that when I use
bindrivers and then use shell in the initial CLI, the CLI
hangs after I press return. This only happens in the
original window, I can open up as many CLI's as I want
and run shell in them with no problems.
I am using Shell 2.08 (Steve Drew's)
I have a 20 meg Microscribe drive partitioned into 2 10 meg
partition
I am using the A2090 harddrive interface
I a have a b2000
and 2 floppies, using the standard workbench
the following startup-sequence fails
binddrivers
cd dh0:
shell
Three other things. When I call bindrivers the harddisk
makes a lot of noise, for a couple of seconds. Is this
normal?
There was also a discussion on why the B2000 does not
guru. Was there ever a patch for this, and if so can I
get it.
Is there a Harddisk backup program around? I would like
to be able to copy my harddisk to several floppies every
once in awhile.
I will not ask about the status of the fast file format.
Well I would just like to thank EVERYONE in advance.

Since I do not post very often I would like to take this
opportunity to thank the Amiga Community and Usenet
people for all the great PD examples and programs that
are out there, I would mention you all by name but I do
not want to tie up net bandwidth that much, and I am
afraid that I will forget someone.

Please excuse all spelling and grammatic errors, as I
am using a lousy keyboard. The fact that I do not speak
the language very well, does not help matter either :-).

I remembered reports of such units so we picked up another one that would. The others in the showroom could guru also. I wonder why there are these units that do not like to meditate. We also discovered that the new keyboards (large function keys) would miss the first character typed after warm boots and does not have n-key rollover whereas the older ones (small function keys) worked fine. My friend picked the newer one, however, because the feel is much better. I have informed her about getting the keyboard fixed under warranty. Again, I wonder why there is a batch of keyboards like that. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chong Soo (Amiga nut) soo@beach.cis.ufl.edu ARPANET/INTERNET soo%ufcsg.ufl.edu@relay.cs.net BITNET soo%ufcsg.ufl.edu%relay.cs.net@wiscvm
