CSULLOGG@CRL.AECL.CA (04/15/91)
For about 2 months, I have been using the following assign.sys file with
my TT and a PTC1426 colour monitor. When I switched to a TTM195 mono
monitor, I could no longer boot my system with GDOS (a screen message
would say that GDOS 1.1 was resident but 2 bombs would appear during the
desk accessory loading step). I tried rewritting the assign.sys file
dozens of ways (see the example at the end of this posting) but the
system still crashes. What the heck do I have to have in my assign.sys
file to get GDOS to load properly?
For netland information, YES, all the drivers and fonts ARE in the path
specified by the path statement! The fonts (except metafonts) and
drivers are from my Timeworks DTP software. The metafonts are from my
LDW software. Crashes occur even when I strip all AUTO programs out
except GDOS and when all accessories are inactivated. Crashes occur
whether or not NEOLOAD is run from the AUTO folder.
If I do run NEOLOAD, when the system crashes I get the following
diagnostic page:
A bus error occurred (2 bombs)

Does anyone know what to do??????? I need an answer a.s.a.p. because U
have drawings to complete with EASYDRAW.

The next file is my last attempt at rewriting the assign.sys file. It,
like all the other versions, did not work. HELP!!!!!
