	I don't know if this has anything to do with your disk problem,
but there's a technical note (#140) which talks about programs, especially
inits which do PBHSetVol. Apparently TOPS is one prime offender. The MPW
installer is one program 
in particular is mentioned as expecting better behavior from inits.
You might try removing all non-apple inits and see if that helps things.
	This is only a hunch.
