I'm not sure that this is even an AppleTalk bug. Last night I tried repeatedly (rebooting, deleting, etc. in between) to copy a directory full of files from a 3.5" disk (Orca/M update /EXTRAS/MACROS) to a directory on my HD20SC, both as a batch and in several subbatches, and every time so long as I was using GS/OS 5.0.2 (Finder 1.3 or Orca/M shell 1.1b) after a few files I got a similar message (I think 8051 first, 805A thereafter). Finally I used ProDOS-8 and CopyII+ version 9, which had no problem copying the whole batch. This smells like a GS/OS bug, possibly to do with directory caching, memory overrun, or some similar problem.
