Nothing needs to be done with the controller, except that to make sure that you
have the data cables plugged onto the right headers. The drives do have a
jumper which needs to be moved, plus (and this may be key) there is a
"terminating resistor" mounted on each drive. This need to be removed from all
drives except the LAST drive, in your case, /h1.

I do have the data cables plugged in proper. I removed the terminating resistor
from /h0 with no noticable change. However, that jumper business on the drives
is what has me confused. I have no tech manual on these things and don't know
where the jumper needs to be. I have moved it to various locations with no
success. The drive that I need info on is the Seagate 213.

re 3482 ~ Greeting-
The method you suggest now is what I am using, but the trouble is that it
only allows a max of 80 characters to be passed including the name of the
module to be executed and we need to pass many more at times. the other
problem is that it causes another shell to be invoked and that eats into both
main memory and the system map. Pitty the poor with only 64 or 128 k in his
OS9 box! No I need to get the exec to work if the mailer programs are going to
work absolutly properly. At least what I consider proper.

Include me too! The MM/1 is a serious consideration at this point.

Looking at my Rand-McNally, you live right smack-dab in an area we're
considering moving to in a year or so.
What's the name of the lake just to the NW of you? It's right in the crease
of the book and I can't read it. Looks like a great area for outdoor
recreation from the map... is it?

Jim - there's a whole bunch of man-made lakes around the RDU (Raleigh-Durham
and Chapel Hill - "Research Triangle) area these days. The big one up on the
NC/VA border is Kerr Lake (old timers call it Buggs Island Lake).
I've lost track of the ones which are closer. Jordan Lake is one. Almost all of
them are very popular for recreation, tho, yes. I'm sure Danno knows the names
of the rest <grin>. Where are you at now?

Phil -
I believe you could set up an ON ERROR routine to catch it (either error 2 or
3)... Or, you could disable it altogether using TMODE, or more avdenturously
using SYSCALL.

Floyd,
I can't get your dungeon program to work. It gets up to the symbols screit
aborts when I press the joystick button.
Also, you have RunB merged in there{_, I don't think you're allowed to do that!
