Mike, I think you are going to continue to have trouble as long as you have the DH0: partition on your SCSI drive. What I suggest you try is to change the partition information for the drive connected to your 2091 (BE SURE YOU HAVE A GOOD BACKUP FIRST). Using the Hdtoolbox program, redefine the partitions on that device, and use different partition "device" names instead of dh0:, dh1:, etc. I believe this is possible, as the RigidDiskBlock standard is not hardwired to specific names, unlike the 2090 system (which predates the RDB standard). If you are careful with HDToolBox, you shouldn't lose the data that exists on the partitions, but if you miss setting the partition boundaries from what they are currently, there is a good chance of losing everything (hence my strong suggestion concerning BACKUPs). Hope this helps, and good luck …. …BobR
