I stopped reading the news, launched the Rodime Utility and read it again..

I read correctly (Mac II 1:1, Mac SE 1:1, Mac Plus 2:1) but noticed
something peculiar. It 'recognized' my drive as a R0300S, which I know
it isn't. It's something like 450, really. It read the drive's size
correctly, though.

Somehow things got mixed up. I don't know why it shows the wrong disktype,
but this probably explains why it gave me the wrong interleave to use.

Thanx to you all for looking into it. I'll spend my weekend
reformatting and installing the drive again :(

Cheers!..
