Gracia When you get the on-screen-interactive POST up and running, you need to have init.ps in the first box, and the name of your own file in the second box … and so on. However, if you just use init.ps there, you can run your own .ps file by selecting `run file' and selecting the file in the requester. So, start up with init.ps in the command line, and then add your own filename manually or RUN it … without init.ps being run first, POST doesn't know how to find fonts! When you are in interactive mode, you can get out by pressing CTRL-\ (back-slash) or QUIT t get out of interactive mode … and then menu-select the QUIT option. I've now been using POST for a long time, and the one thing I could never describe it (from my experiences) is `flakey' … I only run it under 1.3, but I'm told it works just as well under 2.0 … so I can't for the life of me work out why you're having so many problems. I can only assume that the difference between my setup (an Amiga A1000/2MegRAM/1.3) and yours has the clue. Mike (from the UK)
