OK, I wasn't paying attention then. I didn't expect to get a hard disk anywhere near this soon. Configuration is this: MegaST 2, TOS 1.4, Seagate 277N and ICD ST Host Adapter, and PC-Ditto (the software only version). I can't get PCDitto to use the harddisk to boot from. This is what I've done so far Formatted and partitioned the disk. Set up drive 'C:' as the boot partition for ST use. Started PC-Ditto from floppy. Formatted 'C:' using 'format c: /s' while in PC-DOS (3.3). Put the ICDBOOT.SYS file back on 'C:'. Put all the rest of the PC-Ditto programs on "C:'. The system boots from the HD (as 'C:') in ST mode just fine. PC-Ditto executes from the HD just fine, but demands that a disk with DOS be inserted into drive A. I remember reading about some problems and fixes or work-arounds for using a HD and getting PC-Ditto to boot properly. As I said above, I wasn't really paying attention. HELP! What did I do wrong, or what did I not do that I have to? Thanks, Terry Banks P.S. Thanks, Ken. The drive works great! TB -- T.
