If I install !Photodesk 3.09 in 5.17's HostFS (which it will do, it
just produces the error message the moment you try to actually use
it), and Shift-Select the application in that directory, the listed
components are /identical/ in order, size and type to the
corresponding installation on HD4 of my 4.02 setup. So I don't think
that's the problem.

I did post a query on the RPCEmu section of the ROOL Forum a while ago
http://www.riscosopen.org/forum/forums/10/topics/1232?page=1 but
despite a number of 'views', there has been no response so far...
