Over the net recently came a program called "lettahed", which
would take an image file with extender ".IMG" and insert it
into any text file, just about anywhere.
Maybe I did something wrong, but I installed the accessory
on my hard disk, and had no end of trouble. When I tried to
boot my system, I got into an infinite cycle of re-booting,
with something, somewhere, asking me to insert disk B into
drive A. Since everything else had been working well with
one another, all the programs in my BOOT program, and the
addition of this accessory seems to be the thing I did that
caused me the grief.
I had to take emergency measures. (turn off the hard disk, boot with
a certain disk in my floppy drive, turn on the hard disk, run the ICD
boot program, install icon, etc. ... a big pain.)
When I changed the name of the accessory from "LETTAHED.ACC" to
"LETTAHED.AC", my problems went away. Do you know? is this
program incompatible with hard disk systems?
