Ah, oh, I hope you understood right when I was talking about not using partition 0. I actually meant the A: drive rather than partition 0. Using it ok, however I recommend only to use it to boot your MSX from, and for more or less temporary stuff, or anything you have backed up elsewhere (for example, games) (like Pumpkin Adventure).
If you set partition 1 as your A: drive, I don't think it is really different compared to using partition 0. The MSX software doesn't know about partitions (except for the IDE ROM), however it does know about drives, so if something goes wrong it's usually on a driveletter-level and not on partition-level. Good luck, and I hope everything works now (and will work in the future). ~Grauw ----- Original Message ----- From: "Diederick de Vries" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, November 17, 2002 10:39 AM Subject: Re: [MSX] root screwed up Hi all, I had a spare HD so I could try the reinitializing of one partition on that one, and it went okay, so after copying every directory on partition 0 (xcopy cuts out when it encounters a file it can't handle) to partition 30 I reinitialized 0 and xcopied everything to partition 1, in accordance to Laurens Holst's advice of not using partition 0. Thanks for all the help. Diederick de Vries N.B. I thought that diskview would give me far too much hits on Google, so I searched for MST, but couldn't find diskview on there site. _______________________________________________ MSX mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Info page: http://lists.stack.nl/mailman/listinfo/msx _______________________________________________ MSX mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Info page: http://lists.stack.nl/mailman/listinfo/msx
