I 'fixed' it - I don't actually know what the problem was, but I 
reinstalled GS/OS from the disks, and it very nicely overwrote all the 
files that were causing problems without messing up my settings - so 
once I rebooted, I got TCP/IP working still, and there was a 
'Toot-de-toot!' when it booted, which I guess means the AA is loading 
the right tools.

All the tools were there. Everything was 'as it should be', but I guess 
some system files were still set up for network operation.

I can't use MIDI, but I have the right tools/drivers loaded - I have to 
switch AppleTalk off obviously.

Richard (now I'm trying to decide if I want to put a 3.5" HD and Apple 
CD-ROM into a housing I have, or stick with external, Apple-branded units.)
