I just recently received received a GVP Series II (with the memory expansion
but it is unpoulated at this time) controller and a 40 Meg Harddrive. Since
I have a 2088 bridge board in my 4.3 B2000 I thought I'd put a partition on
the hard drive for it, since a utility is included on the disk with it I
suspect it's suported. But after I installed the software (Janus 2 I believe.
I bought it used and the person I bought it from told me it was version 2) on
the hard drive to use it, whenever I started the pcwindows I'd get a requester
informing that a library could not be found (Janus didn't tell which library 
though.) So I whipped out the boot up disk that I used to boot up the bridge 
board before the hard-drive and rebooted the amiga. I received the same 
requester. Knowing it worked before the hard-disk I removed it and used the
old boot disk again and the bridge card booted just fine. After I replaced 
the hard-drive (with out even binddriving it (I've got 1.2 ROMS not
auto-boot... :-( Anyone got 1.3 ROMS they'd like to sell?)) it was back to
the old can't find library. Anybody else have a problem like this? And if so
how did you correct it?
