Good to hear.
Just in case your curious as to what got mapped where, here is a little
Applesoft program that will tell you what volumes are mapped to which
slot/drive pair:
100 ONERR GOTO 1000
110 D$ = CHR$ (4)
120 FOR S = 1 TO 7
130 FOR D = 1 TO 2
140 PRINT D$;"PREFIX,S";S;",D";D
150 PRINT D$;"PREFIX"
160 INPUT A$
170 PRINT "S";S;", D";D;" = ";A$;
180 NEXT D
190 NEXT S
200 END
1000 IF D = 1 THEN D = 2: RESUME
1010 D = 1
1020 IF S < 7 THEN S = S + 1
1030 RESUME
One thing I found when I wrote this under KEGS is that regardless of
whether you have slot 6 in the control panel set to "Your card" or "Disk
Port", nothing gets mapped to slot 6 drive 1 or 2. Slot 5 will map hard
drive partitions if slot 5 in the control panel is set to "Your card".
