I am having a problem getting AMAX up and running on my A500.  When I plug in
the AMAX hardware package and a Mac drive, I am unable to boot up the Amiga.
I just get the insert Workbench Disk prompt.  When I insert a workbench disk
into the internal drive, nothing happens.  The drive doesn't even seem to try 
to read the disk.  If I unplug the Mac drive from the AMAX cartridge, the
Amiga seems to boot up normally.  

Any ideas?  Does it sound like a problem with the Mac drive, the AMAX hardware,
or with the Amiga itself?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
