But Marco, what memory configuration do you have? I suspect the problem is
that I have 3 unmergeable 1/2 meg blocks rather than a 1-1/2 meg one. Can
you confirm or deny this suspicion? Refer to the original title of the 
posting. The only change I made was to change the highcyl value to 79, 
I made a fresh copy straight off my original 1.3 workbench. I changed only
the highcyl value, and then cold rebooted. The resulting RAD: would not
work, It would say it was mounted, but you couldn't access it.
