I accidentally changed the "Mask" value on my partition in HDToolbox.  I have a GVP 68030 card/accelerator.  Does anybody know what the typical setting this should be set at?  Thanks.



For controllers without DMA it can be set to 0xffffffff. For DMA controllers it should be set to whatever the controller needs (read the manual).

Also check the manuals of SFS and/or PFS3. They contain a quite good explanation of Mask and MaxTransfer and what they are good for.
