I posted this several weeks ago, but no one has responded yet, so I'll
try one more time...

I am using a pseudo PC hard drive with an older 2088 bridgeboard.  My
problem is that it takes forever to load programs from it!  I guesstimate
that it is about 6-8 times slower than an XT.  The SCSI amiga drive has
a FFS format on that partition, and I've had no trouble reading from it 
(other than speedwise) so I did not add Mask = 0 to my mountlist.  (Note
this is the autobooting pseudo hard drive made with MAKEAB, ~10MB).  Does
anyone know why this may be happening?  Is this normal?!
