I hope I am not being stupid but I can't figure this out.  I am having
problems booting my Amiga.  Normally I boot off of a floppy and pass
control over to my hard-drive (no auto-boot roms).  This has worked
just fine for the 2 months or so I have had my HD.  Beginning today,
however, I get a message saying "missing k directive dh0:c/execute
return code 20" (or something similar) before control is passed over to
the HD.  If I type the same command line (dh0:c/execute
dh0:gvpscripts/myhd-continue) at the point where execution   
stopped things go as usual.  If I use the hdstartup-continue script
that GVP provided booting proceeds normally (no missing k directive).
I haven't done anything that would change my HD script as far as the
argument template goes (it doesn't take any arguments).  The last
thing I recall doing to the script was  modifying it to run dmouse and
adding ls3.1 to my list of resident commands.  I didn't test to see if
the modifications worked at the time...everything seemed straight
forward.  Can someone provide me with a clue about what might be
happening?
 
Thanks,
