I got HDBOOT to work by putting AHDI.PRG in the root directory of the 
boot disk, like the directions said.  Thanks, Konrad!

I tried to load the ramdisk (rdy) from MWC version 2.0 after I had booted
from the hard disk.  The ramdisk program returned that the load had failed.
When I typed 'cd g:\' (g: is the ramdisk) to msh, the error message 
'cd: Fundamental error' was returned.

I booted the system from the floppy, and the ramdisk loaded OK.  I then did
a warm boot from the hard disk.  Again, msh would not let me cd to drive G:.
The desktop showed the ramdisk as empty.

Konrad, do you have any idea what might explain this behavior?
