     I've always found that a bridge board partition on an Amiga's
hard disk is unacceptably slow, even with just a five-megabyte
partition.  The bottleneck seems to be in in the interface between
the bridge board and the Amiga, not the drive itself.  I wound up
giving the bridge board its own dedicated hard drive (a hard card
in an IBM slot) and it zips right along.  I do MS-DOS software
development on my 2500/2286; it's nice not to have to clutter my
desk with one of those Incredibly Boring Machines.  :-)
