 Set the old HD as master, the new as slave. Don't work? Try the old as slave.

 The HD will not show first time, you need to run the hdtoolbox (or hdinst, or hdinsttools) and partition it first. Remember to not use the very same name for the partitions. Example: if old HD have DH0: , use HD0: for the new one.

 That's an example, you can name your partition anyway you like, even put names in it! But please don't call any "Doomy" or "Amigeek"!:eek:
Goodbye people.

I\'ll pop on from time to time, RL is acting up.

 Nope!

 Then the partition will start to take out every board in system to sell them in Ebay for astronomical prices, the HD will start to complain it is not running in a MIL-spec machine and other problems...

 Check the assigns!

 Don't make "hard" assigns ( some like dh0:), but assign to sys:VT , instead.
