References: <1991Apr11.152736.16640@bronze.ucs.indiana.edu> Date: Thu, 11 Apr 1991 19:57:58 GMT Hi Guys: Good to see that people are using Mac products. The same problem exists with NetWare for Mac 3.0 (what works with OS 3.11). It is *APPLE'S PROBLEM*. Really now, I wouldn't say it if it wasn't true. It has to do with the number of volumes, system 7 won't accept a volume ID of 0, which is what we return for the SYS volume. All previous Apple systems allowed volume IDs to start at 0. Sooooo ... Apple will (supposedly) fix this in the next version of system 7. Have a good one! brianb brianb@wc.novell.com In article <1991Apr11.152736.16640@bronze.ucs.indiana.edu> seiffert@bronze.ucs.indiana.edu writes: >I just installed System 7.0b4 on my machine.
