Actually, it doesn't even see the first two - only the first one.  How can I
"look" for the drives after having launched BASIC?  (I am regrettably still
somewhat Apple-illiterate).


Type CAT,S7,D<partiton number> at the BASIC prompt to show the root
directory of a partition. This assumes that the hard drive is in
slot#7, otherwise change the "S7" part. If you PR#3 first to turn on
80 char mode, CATALOG instead of CAT gives you the full version with
more info.

Of course in Prodos the D<partition number> needs to be a 1 or 2. Anything else would generate an error. Some harddrives will remap the partitions to lower slots. See what you can find.
