I just received RISCOS3.1 two days ago. After installing it I started up my
computer and everything seemed allright. However when clicking on my IDE filer
icon I got the strange error: Error from IDEFS Filer : Disk not Understood
- Has it been formatted? I tried to set one IDE drive in !Configure but that
resulted in another icon and a bad drive error when clicking on it. It seems
that the two modules IDEFS and IDEFSFiler are loaded from my interface but
this also results in having two configure options for IDEDiscs. Can someone
please explain what is happening? I have a A410/1 with an IDEA harddisk 
interface from Ian Copestake Software and SF & PS. The harddisk is a 120mb
drive from western digital. Please mail me any comment or thoughts, or if
you think others will benefit also post!
		Thanks,
			Alexander.
(No point going on without my harddisk?!&*#$@)
