I seem to remember catching the tail-end of a discussion that
relates how to change the Maxtranfer parameter of a GVP partition.

It is obviously more difficult than just editting the mountlist
file, because my 2000 auto-boots and auto-mounts its partitions,
so the info must be encoded someplace in the boot-tracks that
the GVP installation installs on the disk.

If anyone knows anything about this, and has the patch that I am talking
about please, please e-mail it to me!  (I also read all the comp.sys.amiga
newsgroups, but I doubt that everyone wants to see this again.)

(BTW -- hardware is as follows:  1020 5.25" floppy, 2 internal 3.5"
drives, Seagate 296N disk drive, GVP Impact 2000/2 controller,
B2000 4.3rev motherboard, 2002 monitor.)  Thanks in advance.
