For all those that are interested, the SyQuest drive CAN be made to
function under A/UX. I recalled a posting by Tony Cooper 
(tony@popserver.stanford.edu), in which he mentioned the problem
was in the error page set up by the formatting software.  To get around
this, he wrote a utility to fix the error page on each cartridge.  

It works like a charm, and can be retrieved from the LISTSERVer at
ricevm1.rice.edu, for those of you who DONT have access to anonomous 
ftp. (to get more info, send a message with the single line in the body:

$MACARCH HELP

to LISTSERV@ricevm1.rice.edu

It apparently duplicates the sumex archives at stanford (available by 
anon FTP).

If you're really stuck and can't get it from these sources, Tony will
send it to you (I got it from him before I learned about the LISTSERVER),
or I will send you a copy.

Thanks again to Tony for a copy of the utility, and to those of you who
brought the LISTSERVER to my attention.
