Lines: 13 Jeez, it's getting weird. I got the system booting up from the hard drive now, but in non-DMA mode. Apparently apples memory card is not DMA compatible or something like that. Currently I am wondering why the system would ask me to insert the hard disk when I am in the middle of a file copy using the finder. For example, I was copying a folder from the second partition into the first partition. After reading about 5 files, it asked for the first partition. I clicked OK (it was there, right?) and it would start writing, then stop with an error. Reboot time. It's getting pretty annoying UUCP: {amdahl!bungia, uunet!rosevax, crash}!orbit!pnet51!vulture ARPA: crash!orbit!pnet51!vulture@nosc.mil INET: vulture@pnet51.orb.mn.org
