I have been trying to get an answer to this problem for about 9 months now - I hope now that folks are more familar with 5.0.2 someone can help me. I have a IIgs with a 1.5 meg card. I have an Apple 5.25" card in slot 6 and 2 Apple brand 5.25" drives plugged in. I have an Apple 3.5" disk plugged into the drive port and a Unidisk 3.5" plugged into that. I have the slots set to defaults except for slot 6, which I set to my card. I have the boot set to slot 5. I boot up 5.0.2 and all is well. I have the 5.25" driver, the Unidisk driver, the midi driver (i have tried with and without this one), and the imagewriter ii driver. I do NOT have any personal inits, fonts, or das installed. I boot from a disk in the Apple (not Uni) 3.5" drive. I bring up a GSOS program, I dont think that it matters, but for example the TextDisplay program - by double clicking on its icon from the finder. The program is on the disk in the UNIDRIVE. It comes up. I pull down the file menu and select open. I get the File selection dialog box. The file that I want is not in the Unidrive. I change drives (to ram5, then the Apple drive). Meanwhile, I hit the eject button on the UNIDRIVE, pull out the disk, and insert another disk. I change drives again. At least 60% of the time, the selection box continues to display the original drive. And I have messed up the root directory of such a disk by trying to click on entries in the list. If ANYONE out there has a fix for this - so that File selection knows that I have changed disks on the Unidisk - PLEASE let me know! P.S. The 5.0.2 system disk was created by using the Installer for the original 5.0 disk, and then the 5.0.2 script to update the disk. -- Larry W.
