Interesting.  I did not know that the CDOS could be set to expect an
8" drive in B, if it's booting A at 5 1/4"    I only have the disk you
sent me, I guess it's possible that because you were mostly making me
8" disks that you gen'd the CDOS for 5 1/4" format from an 8"
original?

I did some of these same tests from RDOS (above) and they worked
earlier, adding to my confusion because it seemed like I could access
the drive at the lower level.

Thanks very very much, when you work on something for a week you can
start to get crazy about it!

I will let you know how it goes.

Bill
