Thanks for the feedback! (More than I can get from UU's "Tech Support"
line – you know the one that's only available from 10-3 M-W-F and is
always busy…..)
I haven't had much trouble getting the disks to auto-mount. I just used
RDPrep (as you suggested) to create the mountlists.
I did notice that the Mac creates a number of small 'utility' partitions
on any drive I initialize on the Mac side. (These are invisible to the
user, much like RDB's are on the Amiga.)
When using Mac_HDSetup to create a mountlist for it, the only partition
that the program will allow me to create a partition for is the main data
patitions. The other partitions (which appear to contain Mac OS info) are
not mounted, and that caused me to fear that the partition would be
corrupt. (I haven't had the time to do much more than get the system up &
running right now.)
Here's hoping I have better luck with 3.2 and the new motherboard I should
be getting next week.
When you get that VLab-Y/C card, make sure and give us all your impression
of it.
Thanks,
Erik Flom
