[comp.sys.amiga.programmer] Msh

Note this is cross-posted to three groups, (Sorry but I'm a bit desperate.)
and the follow-ups are guided to comp.sys.amiga.emulations.

System: A-1000 512KBytes DF0-DF2 Kick&Work V1.3

I have a problem with messydos. I use DF1: as a messydos drive using
the default Mountlist definitions (From the included Mountlist MSH:.)

The problem is that almost all disks (I formatted with messyfmt (Default
values.) ) get corrupted after copying some files on them... (Yes I did
re-insert the disk after formatting...)

copy df0: MSH: all (Messydisk has a read or write error RETRY/CANCEL)
copy df0: MSH: all (After a break a second try give MSH: device busy.)
copy s:startup-sequence MSH: (Insert volume unnamed in MSH: RETRY/CANCEL)
	Although the disk *IS* in the drive. (Re-inserting doesn't help.)

These are the most often seen symptoms. Others are corrupt 'list msh:'
output, or 'info MSH:' (Not a device) and list MSH: (States msh is an empty
file...)

Anybody can help me? Please e-mail or forward posted replies to me because
I can't read comp.* groups for a while.
