This message turned up in search, but its forum couldn’t be identified from the original transcript, so it may not be linked into its thread.

If the error it gives you is "NOT A DOS DISK IN UNIT 2" then you have to format the disk and it will recognize it. Also, when you modified the file MOUNTLIST I presume you only changed the DF1: to a DF2: and the unit # from 1 to 2, but left flags alone (at 1). I see that you have the full 1.2 set (5 disks) so presume you also understand that you can't use IBM formated disks in the 5 1/4 while in Amiga mode. This is for anyone else reading this thread.
