(mmm mmm tasty line for the line eater)

  I've recently installed ORCA/M, APW C, and GS/OS and have them all running
from my new hard disk.  Unfortunately, programs which used to compile and
run just fine no longer work.  So far, only programs which attempt to use
tools (ie quickdraw II) fail to work..they compile, then print a few lines
of inverse @'s and other garbage on the text screen, and hang.  Control-reset
doesn't drop into the shell - it reboots.
   So far, I've tried booting GS/OS off the hard disk, and then running ORCA
off my original one 3.5" disk drive configuration.  I've tried (to be sure)
booting the old prodos 16 on floppy, then doing exactly what I did when booting
off of GS/OS..it runs just fine.
   Worse still, the compiled files always run under prodos 16, and my old
3.5" configuration, and never run off my hard disk and GS/OS, despite whether
they're compiled under GS/OS or P16.
   I'm obviosly going to have to work this one out pretty much on my own, but
if anyone has any ideas, please mail me.

   One last note - I've got an internal AI hard drive running.  It's fast 
enough to make me happy (though I haven't really compared it with, say, CMS),
the built in fan is fairly quiet, and it's given me no trouble at all.  Took
me 10 minutes to install, I only have to park heads for transportation, and
it sure was cheap.  Thanks, AI.
