Hi Harry, I was able to make up a boot floppy (took almost two hours before I got it just right and got the bridgeboard working again.) Was able to PREP the drive without any problems, but things fell apart while formatting the HD. Tried it twice with different paramaters for heads/cylinders/SCT and both times formatting stopped at about the 25% point, leaving the HD drive LED turned on. Was using the hddisk from the 2.1 WB install disk. Oh well, enough experimenting for now. Will leave things as is until the A2091 shows up. 73, Kelly
