After one of the many crashes, my startup partition is damaged and cannot be mounted. The second partition will mount, but I have lots of problems copying files to it and opening folders and applications. When he moved the HDs from Plus to CI did he reformat the disks as 1:1 interleave? If not - he's messed up. The interleave won't cause anything more than the drive to be very slow (if moved from a Plus to a Ci). And BTW, Jasmine drives are allways formated at 1:1 interleave, cause Jasmine has tweaked the drivers to better performance. The problem here is that Jasmine drives had some other reported problems with the newer Macs, ie. at least Ci an newer, which derived from some sort of timing problems. Contact Jasmine for detailed information. They probably have newer drivers allready. -- Tero Nieminen Tampere University of Technology n67786@cc.tut.fi Tampere, Finland, Europe
