Hi, I am about to bring up A/UX V2.0 on a conner 105mb drive. A while back someone posted how to patch Apple HD SC Setup to allow non-apple drives to be partitioned by the app. I thought it was patching the code resource named '%a5init' by finding the first drive in that code and patching a length of 0 for it allowing anything to 'Match'. I tried that, but still get the 'Nosuitable SCSI device found'...Did I do something wrong? Failing this, does anything else allow A/UX setup besides HD SC Setup? ================================================================== Phil Hunt "Wherever you go, there you are!!!"

I have a stock answer for this question: Silverlining from LaCie 19552 SW 90th, Tualatin, OR, 97062; 1-800-999-0143 It formats A/UX drives, big drives, any drive. It allows resizing of partitions without destroying data! All kinds of nifty things!

I think the procedure is to patch a length of zero before EVERY drive name
in order for HD SC Setup to recognize a non-Apple installed drive.
OnTrack Systems' HD software does A/UX 2.0.
Please send followups to comp.sys.mac.hardware
