Can someone help me? I own a Mac Plus (4MB) two disk drives 20MB and
120MB, daisy-chained off my SCSI port (MAC to 20 to 120). Yesterday
while shutting my system off I mistakenly turned of the 20 before the
mac completely shut down. When I booted back up I found that 4 out of
5 of the partitions on my 120 are unreadable. The exact error reads
"this is not a macintosh dish. INITIALIZE/CANCEL?".
The only partition that works is the system partition, so I know
the problam is with software. I figure that when I turned off the
20 it shut down the SCSI port leaving some tables in an unreadable
state. Does anyone know how I can repair thses files?
Can anyone help me?
