   Problems.....

I need advice.  I recently tried to hook up a second drive to my amiga 500.
Everthing seemed to work fine, but every disk I put in df1: gave me a
df1:bad message on the workbench screen.

  Added Info.....

A friend hooked up the drive (original amiga external drive.) to his 2000
and it worked fine.  My setup is a A500 with memory expansion to 1 meg.
My guess is that my external drive port is bad, but if the port is bad
why does it recognize that there is a disk in the drive?  The drive lights
turn on at the proper times...  Oh well, any info you might have for me
will be greatly appreciated...

                        Thank You,
                     Ryan Harlicker
