You might like using the /STATUS switch, to see the progress. I think I'll go crank up the 730 to copy the RL02... :-) Sadly the 730 doesn't boot. I was afraid it wouldn't - the RA81 is being cranky. "Servo fine positioning error" (which probably means "the HDA is trash"!) Those things are not particularly reliable, but there aren't many alternatives for disk drives. Check that the transport lock isn't engaged. Johnny
