I'm trying to get MSH to work on my A500 running AMIGADOS 1.3. I have had
limited success getting the mount function to accept the example Mountlist    
file with some minor modifications. When I enter

  >mount msh: from Mountlist

my Amiga responds with

 "Reserved not assigned".

Here is the mountlist entry that I'm using:

/* Messy file system on messy blocks: */
MSH:	FileSystem = ram:MessyFileSystem
	Device = ram:messydisk.device
	Unit = 1
	Flags = 0
	LowCyl = 0 ; HighCyl = 79
	Surfaces = 2
	BlocksPerTrack = 9
	Buffers = 5
	BufMemType = 1	/* messydisk needs no chip mem */
	BootPri = 0
	Stacksize = 4096
	Priority = 5
	GlobVec  = -1
#

I have all the MSH files on the ram: drive as stated in the above file entry.
When I put an MS-DOS formatted disk into drive 1, I get the standard "Bad
Disk" icon and cannot access the disk using any amigados commands. 

What do I need to do next? 

Thanks for the help.
