I just downloaded and tried out a freeware program called SCSI Partition,
written in Austrailia by... I forget. Anyway, this program does what I
suggested to Dave Lyons about a month ago... It maps the partitions of a
large SCSI hard drive to ghost slots and drives so that Prodos 8 can read
them! It is a small patch to P8 and GS/OS that only takes a minute to
install using a small installation utility that comes with it. When you
boot into GS/OS, then go into a P8 program, it can now instantly recognize
all your partitions (well, all mine anyway, and I've got 6). So far I've
tested it with AppleWorks, Proterm, MouseDesk, DBMaster, and a few
others. No problems. It works transparently to the user except for an extra
2 lines of text that come up when P8 is loading (telling you SCSI Partitions
is active). VERY handy little utility for all you big SCSI HD owners. I
would post it to the system if I knew how to do so from a ProLine system.
If anybody would like a copy, they can get it from Pro-Beagle (of Beagle Bros.
fame) at (619) 558-6151.
I don't work for Beagle Bros, so there!

How about posting it to PRO-beagle? At least we can spread it around that
way.
