Finally, I got my SE/30 internal HD formatted !!! Thanks to everyone who helped with many suggestions. It appears that the one thing which was keeping the HD from being formatted was that Virtual Memory was on !
I tried many (about 15) HD tools, but the only one which gave me a clue was Drive Setup (1.5 or 1.6.1), with a message that said there was a file that was busy, and that I should try turning off Virtual Memory ! Well, after turning off Virtual Memory, restarting, the HD formatted in no time. Now, to get this SE/30 connected to my DSL line !!! -- : - ) - Vern Andrews - - - - - Oregon Trail Descendant < mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > < mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > ~~~ < mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Andrews Research & Education ~~ http://www.angelfire.com/ca2/VernAndrews/ http://members.fortunecity.com/vernandrews/indexresearch01.html -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
