A friend of mine has an Amiga B2000-cr(?) Rev 4.1 and a GVP impact 2000 SCSI
controller Rev 4 connected to a Quantum 80S.  The problem is intermittent
read/write errors, low-level format problems, and every other time you try
to reassign bad sectors it says "alternate sectors unavailable."  But if he
tries it again, it works. (but it still has read/write errors)

Would the quantum be having problems, or maybe the GVP doesn't like the Rev
4.1 on the B2000?

If anyone has had this problem or knows anything about it, PLEASE e-mail me!!
(and maybe you have all the setup info, mountlist, etc..)

Thanks!!

later,
