Hi folks,
hit an interesting problem when trying to mount RAD on a Expanded A4000 with 3.1 roms and running WB3.5.
Using CLI to mount RAD: resulted in the above (i.e. the title of this thread) in file:-
sys;storage/dosdrivers/rad line 17, column 1
So I decided to try to mount PC0: and rxd a similar error message in file:-
devs:dosdrivers/pc0 line 16, column1
I then checked out the same "mounts" on a expanded A1200 with 3.1 roms and running WB3.1 where everything worked out OK, i.e. PC0: and RAD: mounted correctly.
I also have another expanded A4000 with 3.0 roms running WB3.0 into which I have just replaced the df0: floppy drive
(from Amigakit UK) and seem unable to format any HD (2MB) floppy disks, I can format the same floppies on the A1200 and the A4000 (3.0rom/3.0wb) can then read and write to them ok.
Questions
1. What is causing the invalid keyword error message when trying to mount RAD and PC0 and is there a work around?
2. Why can't I format HD floppies on the A4000 (3.0rom/3.0wb)?
many thanks Ian

Check the version of the Mount command. Should be 40 (= WB 3.1) or 44 (= OS 3.9).
Bye,

Hi Thomas,
have updated the version of Mount from 38.21 to 44.? and its now possible to mount RAD, etc.
many thanks for quick feedback, now just need to sort the problem with formatting HD floppies,
