Hmm, why do i get errors then pbread doesn't wnat to read me a block at offset 512 reqcount=1 posmode= fstar iorefnum=-5 and iovrefnum=-2 (second volume mounted = the internal disk drive which has a number of -2 according to getvinfo) I have looked at the new im vols and found a list that listed the disk driver as #4 (not even -4) so i am confused. I have been getting error -19 and error -51 both of which help me little.
