I have been trying to setup a 32 meg prodos partition under applewin
with the goal of eventually copying it to a CF card and using it on a
real IIe. It seems applewin cannot open the .po files made by cider
press. Does anyone know a work around for this?

Sure it can. You need to go to the configuration options (joystick/
speaker button), hit the "Disk" tab, then tick the "Enable harddisk in
slot 7" checkbox. Then, hit the "Select HDD1" button and give it your
32M image. Hit OK, and boot away!

With all the features popping-up in Applewin and Ciderpress and other Apple
II emulators including support for CP/M it is hard to be right all the
time:)

Charlie Danemark's FishWings also deals with hdv and speaking of Charlie, I
got a real hoot out of Wasp:)

Updates occur quickly at the hands of daredevils like David Schmidt, Andy
McFadden, Tom Charlesworth, Jonno Downes, and other heroes in here. It is
almost a full time job to keep track and download the latest versions and
see how they run:) Not that I'm complaining...

I generally create my ProDOS HD volumes as .po, then rename them to
.hdv to keep Oasis and AppleWin happy.

Why rename them? Just add the '.hdv' suffix when you create the
volume.

I sometimes do, but I assumed the OP already had a .po file...
