I heard from somewhere that Sun machines use the alternate ID (ie B: instead of A:--- they don't use the twist in the cable) and that you must plug the drive in before the twist in order to get it recognized as A: (I've never personally tried it, but I have heard that people have had success). Hope that helps. ----|||------------------------------------------------------------- - ||| Atari 8-bit!
