Okay ... I'm running a Duo 280c with 7.6.1 I installed the Finder and the System in a folder called System Folder on a ram disk. I added Disk First Aid to the disk and set it as my start-up disk. I rebooted. It worked! I run Disk First Aid off of the RAM disk, select my main drive that needs the minor repairs, and I get the dialogue that says I can't repair that drive because it's either the start-up disk, has open items, or has file sharing active. As far as I can tell, none of those things are going on. Did I forget to install something on the RAM disk? I checked a bunch of websites, and all I cna figure out is that I need to use the FInder, the System and then "whatever special files my computer needs". It's those other special files that I think I'm forgetting ... Thanks for listening ... I continue my quest :) sd ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
