I don't think anyone else on the net has the kind of storage you describe! The volumes are displayed in a scrolling box, so I don't see why it couldn't display all 20 volumes. The largest volume GS/OS supports is 4 gigabytes, which works out to 128 32-meg partitions (ha, and you though 640 megs was big!) Out of curiosity, how much of your hard drive is filled? And what do you put in that monster?!?!? \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ | Brian T.

This drive was underutilized at the office and some kind soul lent it to me for a while. -- Max Heffler internet: max@lgc.com Landmark Graphics Corp. uucp: ..!uunet!lgc!max 333 Cypress Run, Suite 100 phone: (713) 579-4751 Houston, Texas 77094

Sounds like a definite bug to me, with the text messed up like that. Sorry but I haven't got a clue. Where's Matt D. and the rest of Apple DTS when you need them???????????????????? \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ | Brian T.
