After much poking around I found out that it was failing because my disk controller couldn't handle 2MHz. Now I know I've heard warnings about running at 2MHz under OS9 level I but I thought level II was going to have code in the disk driver to slow it down whenever it accessed the disks. As it stands the only way I got this thing to run was to use my level I system to zap out the speedup "pokes" on my level II system disk. So now I have a running level II system but at 1MHz. I could have sworn Tandy promised that all I had to do was put in the PAL upgrade in my multipak and I would be all set.
