Thanks, Tony. TBH, I'm beginning to lose the will to live; I've tried
both the self-extracting and tarball versions of HardDisc4 with equal
lack of success; both extraction operations (carried out on my RPCEmu
089/402 installation) result in directory checksum errors when running
UnTarBZ2 (tarball) or 'Application may have gone wrong' error
messages (Utility filetype). Maybe RPCEmu is the issue. My Iyonix is
safely packed away in the loft. So I'm stuck. Maybe it's best to
revert to 5.17; at least it worked! Unless you have a barebones !Boot
from said HardDisc4 which you could send me (suitably zipped: that at
least works here)?
George
