TO ANYONE, I am trying to change the startup sequence for my Amiga as described in the Enhancer software manual for AmigaDOS 1.3. I'm TRYING to use the Ramdrive Workbench described on 5-5 and 5-6 in the manual. The problem is the line "SYS:System/diskcopy <NIL:df0: to RAD:" keeps giving an error. I'm not sure, but it seems to be the redirection after diskcopy. HELP!!! Chuck h

Chuck, Try: SYS:System/diskcopy >NIL: df0: to RAD: I don't have the manual handy to check, but it's probably the output that needs to be re-directed. Your line has a space missing between >NIL: and df0:, which also might be the problem if the re-direct happens to be correct. Hope this helps, 8) David

sys:system/diskcopy <NIL: df0: to rad: name "RadWB" ^ space required The <NIL: redirects the request to place appropriate disk(s) in drive(s) and hit return to continue. hope this helps, Edjs – via Whap!

Yes – your problem is with your redirection portion. I had this problem once a long time ago. The problem is that the manual type is such that you cannot see the required space inbetween "<NIL:" and "df0:", so it appears that these two logical device specifications are actually one strange looking fragment. Change your "<NIL:df0:" to "<NIL: df0:" and you shouldn't have any more problems. – via Whap! (from Southern Illinois)
