I just came across yet another bug in System Software 6.0 that I haven't seen mentioned elsewhere: I toasted one of my hard disks and wanted to reinitialize it with HD SC Setup (this was on a Mac II). Well, HDSCS won't let you init a mounted volume, right? So I dragged it to the trash and proceeded to initialize it with HDSCS. I quit back to the unifinder and was presented with two (!!) icons for that disk: a normal SCSI disk icon and a FLOPPY disk icon. Both icons had the same space available, etc, and copying to one put the object on both. I duplicated this error with a debugger loaded and took a look at the drive queue and VCB lists. The dual entries were identical (important stuff like driver and volume reference numbers too). ---===---===---===---===--/* Chuck Lukaszewski */--===---===---===---===--- ARPAnet/NSFnet/MRnet: AppleLink: SnailMail: Ma Bell: imp@crayview.msi.umn.edu UG0138 Minneapolis MN 55418 612/789-0931
