I've got problems using GDOS (AMCGDOS) with the harddisk driver of my vortex HDplus 20 (hardware: Mega ST 2 with TOS 1.4). GDOS works if I don't use the harddisk, so I guess the problem is the disk driver. Does anybody know how to solve this? Or can I use another HD driver without getting into trouble? Thanks for information! Oliver Kraemer E-Mail: s_kraemer@iravcl.ira.uka.de

One common problem I've found is that GDOS (both AMC and Atari flavours) require the fonts and graphic device drivers to be on the same drive as GDOS. I use a small boot partition to hide away all the stuff I don't normally want to look at, but was defeated when I wanted to then temporarily use some fonts on another drive which wouldn't fit on the boot drive...

What you want to do is make SURE that ASSIGN.SYS tells what directory the stuff is in. Fonts & drivers don't have to be on the same, but ASSIGN.SYS does have to say WHERE they are. Failing in that, good luck... -- ||| David W.
