Okay, I finally tried the ProFile on my IIGS today.  The controller card 
first went into slot 2.  Tried to boot from it nothing happened.  Then, I 
got GS/OS 6.0.1 up on fdd.  It couldn't read the PF so it asked if I 
wanted to init it.  GS/OS could see that the PF has abt 5MB capacity and 
went ahead to init it (ProDos).  Then, an I/O error occured ($27 to be 
exact).  I'd tried slots 3 and 6, and tightening connectors to no avail.

My question is, has the PF "gone to the great hard disk playground in the 
sky"?

TIA

p.s.  sigh......
