WelI broke down and bought Silverlining v5.27 to
partition my Maxtor LXT-200S for A/UX 2.0 since
I never could get the partitioning software supplied
with the drive to work quite right. I get much better
results with Silverlining; however I still have
two anomalies:
1) On boot I get a cryptic nonfatal error message
that reads something like
Error on c0d0s0 - Bad code 0x24
Failure on 'generic' disk
The boot then continues error free.
2) After logging in, A/UX finder only mounts my A/UX partition and
the HFS partition which contains the System Folder (i.e. my
Mac OS boot partition). This is true for both the additional
HFS partitions on the Maxtor (there are two more) as well as
the HFS partition on my external drive (a Dataframe XP60).
Does anyone know what the problem/solution is????
Thanks,
Forrest

A/UX supports only 1 HFS partition per disk. --Brian Bechtel blob@apple.com "My opinion, not Apple's"

I have an old DataFrame 20 that I couldn't get to mount under A/UX, and I couldn't format it for use as extra space for A/UX. According to SuperMac because of the controller that the DataFrame 20 uses, it will NOT talk to A/UX. Hopefully this is not the case with your XP60. ..
