That is indeed strange...I use AW 2.1 and GS/OS 5.0, w slightly more memory,
and have a huge desktop.  A friend, who is devoted to AW 2.0, runs a similar
setup with an equally huge desktop.   I can't imagine why you would have that
problem.  Unless, of course, you are not using ProDOS 1.8 with your
setup--that is, if the version of ProDOS on your AW disk is earlier than 1.8,
GS/OS 5.0 won't like it.  In fact, if you install Glen Bredon's clock driver
to PD 1.8, nothing will run.  I would guess that you are not using the correct
version of PD.  When you boot your "specialized disk" you are starting with PD
8 and forgetting the "sensitivities" of GS/OS.  I kinda wish they would bury
the checksum routine myself, as I used to alter the PD startup screen to
better suit my aesthetic sensibilities, but that too will cause a no-go.
