You're >prolly just copying the files there, and that doesn't work. Think about it >for a sec... But if I'm using DigiCopy GS why should I have to format /ram5?? I don't have to do it with anything that's not System Disk 5.0 [Possibly 5.02, but certainly nothing earlier than 5.0] Those kinds of things can be copied directly to /ram5 with no formatting... So in my book that means there's a bug or a "feature", doesn't it? If this strangeness (Error $0028, unable to read boot path or somesuch weird error) is happening ONLY with System 5.0 (or possibly exclusively 5.02 but I doubt it), doesn't it say something's kooky w/System 5? -- / Apple II(GS) Forever! unknown@ucscb.ucsc.edu \ \ Computer engineering student seeking a job. /
