Message-ID: <1991Mar22.085224.29229@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu> Date: 22 Mar 91 14:52:24 GMT Organization: University of Kansas Academic Computing Services Lines: 23 In System 7.0b4, copying files is now a background operation, ie., you can start a copy and switch to another application. Is there a way to patch disk initialization so it is also a background process? Or has someone already done this and would be willing to share the patch? Thanks in advance for all replys.
