Details, |details. :) | | |Nate | Yes, but I tried again with only wdc0 and fdc0 enabled and with npx flags 1 and got into the menu. Yes! So it shows disk geometry: 699/64/63 which is not what was printed during the boot although the 699*64 == 2796*16. Now I try to "G" to set the geometry to 2796/16/63 by typing into the dialog box 2797//16//63 which yields 2796/0/63 showing in the menu. Is this "normal" or do we expect G to work? Paul
