Problems with files and disks

I want to assign a drive container to the C or D drive, but I can’t find the drive container

in the dialog box.

The drive container may be assigned to another drive letter. Check the C: and

D: pop-up menus.

I want my drive container to have more than one partition.

Create a new drive container following the instructions in “Changing the

Size of a Drive Container” in Chapter 5. Initialize the drive container in DOS

using the FDISK and FORMAT commands.

I can’t share all the folders I want.

Make sure that you have sufficient drive letters assigned in your

CONFIG.SYS file’s LASTDRIVE statement. The PC reserves the letters A–E;

other letters are available to be assigned to shared folders or volumes.

Novell Netware may reassign drive letters even if you have assigned them to

shared folders. Try reserving additional drive letters and reassigning your

shared folders.

I inserted a floppy disk in the PC environment and it was ejected.

The disk may have been formatted for the Mac OS. Switch to the Mac OS and

try inserting the disk again.

I inserted a PC-formatted disk in the Mac OS and an initialization message appeared.

Macintosh PC Exchange may not be installed in the Control Panels folder. If

you don’t find it, you can reinstall it using your system software CD-ROM disc.

The disk may be damaged. Try inserting another disk. If that works, test the

original disk in the PC environment using a disk repair utility.

I switched to the Mac OS, and I don’t see the floppy disk I was using.

The floppy disk may not have been locked. To use an unlocked PC-formatted

floppy disk in the Mac OS, you must switch to the Mac OS before inserting

the disk.
