Has anyone tried to install GEOS to either of these environments? My experience: On the GS, GEOS can only see the first ProDOS partition (of two) - which is unfortunate, as it is also my GS/OS System partition. GEOS put its system files in my System folder (which didn't break anything), but it's messy. I was completely unable to get GEOS to live happily anywhere else, trying all sorts of manual hacking/copying. On the LC IIe card, GEOS is unable to see my SmartPort ProDOS partition at all, making it completely impossible to even begin the installation procedure. Anyone else ever tried this and have any pointers/solutions? Thanks, Rodney
Sounds as though GEOS is 8 bit software. This is why it only sees the first two partitions on your GS. Test this by going into basic.system and see how many you can find from there. As to why it won't work on the emulator, I haven't a clue. I suspect it might be due to the nature of the way things are stored on the hard drive.
