Well. I have several things on my mind; let's start
with the Subject: Two times(read 2,II,etc) the following
has happened. The Amiga has been turned on for several hours.
But I have not touched it for a while. Then, suddenly,
a requester appears. If I remember right, it has just
one option, Cancel. I know you will call me a fool, because
I have both times clicked this requester, after reading
the text quickly, and have NOT written it down. I'm sorry.
But it did not sound alerting; it was some 2 lines with
the words scsi, device(or driver) and some numbers.
I am trying to reproduce it; it last happened 2 days ago.
It does not seem WRong, but I really don't like my
system doing things on it's own initiative!(Well, others
might, but I it disturbing!?). To describe the situation
more accurately, the amiga was not doing anything, both
times(no programs started, no nothing), just rebooted and
started workbench.
My system consists of an PAL A500, 2.3 MB ram, and an
Impact Series II gvp harddisk, and kickstart 1.3
------------------------
To something completely different: I just used the pro-
gram SysInfo, a program amongst other places found on
fishdisk#?, which tells you about what you have hooked
up to your system, and things about your system.
Most of what it said pleased me :-), but it said
my hard disk driver was in SLOW. Huh? Then I read
the doc for the program through, and it explained that
this "gadget" told whether the hard disk device driver(?)
was in slow or fast ram, and that if it was in Slow
ram, I should hurry and put it in fast ram. Allright
with me, but how do I do this? What is it I should
get in fast ram, and how do I do it?
