Hello,
 
   I connect a Jasmine 80 formatted as an Apple Drive (Apple HD Setup V1.1) to
my Mac II and it works perfectly, boots perfectly until...
 
   I was running the control panel and got an error 10.  Then the HD didn't boot
as the light on front blinks, but no boot.  Boot a floppy and voila', the HD 
shows up correctly, but will not boot.  I tried doing UPDATE on the drivers in
Apple HD setup (It says it was successful), and rewriting the boot blocks, but no
boot luck.   BTW, this is the second time this has happened, once before it did
this while I was trying to run the new Color text editor (MaxWrite).  Somehow,
I don't know how, the HD finally did boot.  What am I doing wrong???
