Hi dave@digital.prestel.co.uk,

Well, at the moment what I have to do to get it to recognise the secondary
IDE channel is to do a boot until SetPatch reboots the Amiga, then do
SetPatch without the scsi.device update, and it works. To do this I use a
pretty messy set of IF EXISTSs and copying dummy flag files :(( Not ideal.
But if I try to do it normally, the driver is run, but doesn't do anything,
and isn't installed, as the prefs program works from Workbench. When I run
the driver foom the commant prompt, it doesn't produce any output at all,
returning immediately. It will only work when it's resident from the 1st
boot :(

So that's my problem, It works for me now, but I'd love for it to work
properly...

Cheers!

Regards,
Rob
