The problem was that the driver code did not implement the necessary control codes to return info on the device. The new 2.0 version does support system 6.0. The old driver runs fine under system 6.0 EXCEPT if you try to do a high level format via Erase Disk-- it used to ask whether or not you wanted to format your Rodime as single or double sided (!) My opinions are my own, not my employers. etc. etc. etc. -dave falkenburg university of michigan computer aided engineering network Internet: falken@caen.umich.edu UUCP: umix!caen.engin.umich.edu!falken
