I attached some hard disks to a laserwriter once and got the same
problem downloading fonts. I did manage it eventually but I think I had
to do them one by one to get it to work. All was in vain though -  the
LaserWriter's disk management knacked the disks up big style within two
weeks or so. Have you ever got it to work at all with any sort of disk?
