A couple of days ago I posted (at least I though I did) a note
requesting help on a rather curious problem I ran across on my
IIGS.  So far I haven't received any response.  C'mon folks, just
a little hint, hm?  Here's my first post.

==================================================================

I need some advice.  Over the weekend something rather strange
occurred.  I was resizing some windows on my IIGS and one of the
folders on my HD would not open.  The message window appeared and
read, "Please insert disk MAGELLAN".  Now MAGELLAN is the name
of (you guessed it) my HD.  I was not able to delete the folder
nor was I able to find out any information about it.  All other
folders seem to be behaving properly.  Any way to rectify this
situation (short of reformatting the HD)?  My system config. is:
 
IIGS ROM 01
OS 5.0.4
TWGS
4.25 MB GS Ram+
20MB HD
 
Thanks in advance.
 
==================================================================

Cheers.

Rich
