Re: Liron/UniDisk Question



	First, use Copy II+ and tell it to transfer files.  This ignores slots that
are not TAKING UP  one or two drive designations, so if it lists slot 5 (where
I'm assuming you're running the troublesome card), then you know that it thinks
the card is there (it doesn't care about the drives at this point.

	Next, try a scan for volumes on line.  Copy II+ can do this when you tell it
to copy files.  At the bottom of the screen it tells you to press "?" to get
the Volume Names.  Is the drive recognizing the disk at all?

	If neither works, try removing the Focus.  If you have several partitions OR
EVEN "POTENTIAL PARTITIONS", the Focus may be "bumping" the other drives off. 
A "Potential Partition" could be a drive card that is not being used or only
having one drive hooked up to it.  Some programs recognize what was going on in
the real world, and some didn't.  Maybe the computer is having trouble too.  I
found that even changing the slot that the Focus was in allowed different
numbers of partitions to be recognized.

	I tried mine last night with a few different programs (MouseDesk, DeskTop 1.1,
SuperSelector 3.22, Quickview 1.1 and Copy II+8.4).

[]	DeskTop, which I love, had the most trouble with multiple partitions. 
After 12, it locked up almost immediately.  To make matters worse, the program
recognizes the last volume first, so the boot volume wasn't even recognized on
the desktop after 10.
[] 	MouseDesk had the least trouble (13 volumes after I played with the
Focus' slot locations a bit.  The rest did alright, plus they're text based so
you can read what' there (MouseDesk and Desktop just leave a blank space on
their desktops.

So, try removing the Focus and see what happens.
