Hi

I have the problem under System 3.0 that one machine can read Macintosh  
Floppies (and initialize) as described in the manual. I did build the a system  
from this hard disk (on a 105 MB internal disk) and this new system can't read  
the Mac floppies anymore. It is not the hardware, because if I connect an  
external disk with system 3.0 to this station it suddenly  c a n  read Mac  
floppies. Another computer with a system, which was upgraded from 2.1 to 3.0  
with the CD rom doesn't recognize Mac flopies either and allows only to  
initialize DOS and NeXT formatted floppies.

Does anyone know what's going on? Is there a switch I have to set in the  
system?

Thanks,

  Ulrich Wiedner
