I forget. Anyway, this program does what I suggested to Dave Lyons about a month ago... It maps the partitions of a large SCSI hard drive to ghost slots and drives so that Prodos 8 can read them! It is a small patch to P8 and GS/OS that only takes a minute to install using a small installation utility that comes with it. When you boot into GS/OS, then go into a P8 program, it can now instantly recognize all your partitions (well, all mine anyway, and I've got 6). So far I've tested it with AppleWorks, Proterm, MouseDesk, DBMaster, and a few others. No problems. It works transparently to the user except for an extra 2 lines of text that come up when P8 is loading (telling you SCSI Partitions is active). VERY handy little utility for all you big SCSI HD owners. I would post it to the system if I knew how to do so from a ProLine system. If anybody would like a copy, they can get it from Pro-Beagle (of Beagle Bros. fame) at (619) 558-6151. I don't work for Beagle Bros, so there! Laer
