Help, After Installing the ADos 2.0 software, the IDE disk just causes a failed boot . I must override and boot from the 2.0 floppy Then mount the Hard Disk manually. I am going to re-partition the Hard Disk anyway after backing it up under 2.0 but was wondering why it won't boot after following the 2.0 Install program and using the Standard 2.0 startup-sequence. The way CBM describes it you can use your previously formatted Hard Disk but would benefit only from the reformatting. It's not supposed to be required. This is an IDE-40 with 105 meg quantum ide harddisk. Prima type install ation. Jerry
