HELP!! I'm almost completed putting together a Palomax interface. I can even
get the drive to format and read verify. My only problem is that I can't get
the testhd3.1 or the hdconfig3.1 programs to recognize my hdparams file.
Following is what the file looks like:

----------------------------Begin File----------------------------------------
cont F7FFE0
sect 17, 26

DH0:
cyl 306 This is for the Seagate ST412
hds 4
rwi 306
pre 153
ecc 0
stp 2
res 2

DH1:
cyl 650
hds 4
rwi 651
pre 651
ecc 0
stp 1
res 1

---- Comments -----
First drive is ST412
Second Drive is on the way
------------------------------End File----------------------------------

If anyone could look at this, and point out any glaring errors in my file
format--or (even better) mail me their hdparams file, it would make my
beloved amiga very happy.
