You should look at it sometime. Anyways, I'd guess you were only trying to use RDY from the GEM interface. There's no fixed size limit in the RDY program itself, those are just the limited choices you get from the dialog. I set it up from the command line; used 2 meg with no trouble at all. In msh, try: rdy CMD=MAKE DISK=M SIZE=1500 or something like that... > >Brett L Maraldo -- -- Howard Chu @ University of Michigan
