Bill, There may be a problem with DOS 5.0 creating the boot block. As I said I did have a problem with an early release of DRDOS, but I was able to get the drive working under 3.3. Only real problem with 3.3 is that you can't create a drive larger than 32 Meg. However, perhaps once you get it to boot you can then try re-installing 5.0. Perhaps then it will work. You could try 4.0 as well, since it will let you create larger partitions than 3.3 did. You could also get DRDOS, which I know does work since I have installed it both on the bridgeboard and under CrossPC. Good luck with it.
