Thanks to chuckk@tekgen.bv.com (whom I was unable to respond directly),
my GeoDex dilema has been resolved. The installation instructions forgot
to mention to configure (from the Geos configure file) my drive as a
1541; silly me, I have a 1571! Anyway, it seems that the software needs
to be initialized-only under a 1541 configuration, and afterwards it can
be copied for working purposes onto a 1571 formatted floppy.
So, here are the correct steps:
1) Load Geos.
2) Change configuration file (disk) to a 1541.
3) Open GeoDex (from the source disk, this automatically causes initialization
and installation).
4) Change configuration file back to a 1571.
5) Make backups etc....
