What this boils down to is that any Init/cdev/rdev, etc. in the System Folder which is invisable will NOT be recognized by the INIT31 (Init Loader) mechinism and so will not be loaded. Just wanted to point this out before people started trying it with System 6.0.x and wondered why it didn't work!! /* ============================================================ */ /* Leonard Rosenthol | GEnie: MACgician */ /* President, Lazerware inc. | Delphi: MACgician */ /* | MacNet: MACgician */ /* denn@violet.berkeley.edu | AppleLink: D0025 */
