Now I'm getting confused, not unusual for me :-( I discover that I also have a Boot:Choices.Boot.Tasks.!Boot file which I have deleted. On re-boot, the only thing that's different is that the root directory viewer doesn't open. I've put this file back, with every line deleted except for Filer_OpenDir ADFS::HardDisc4.$ 346 1076 848 504 -sn -li and, as expected, I now see that directory at boot time. I can't remember now, but what I think must have happened is that at some time I saved this file in order to see this directory when I start up. This brings two questions: 1) What is the approved way of opening a directory automatically at start-up? 2) When one does Boot > Configure > Look at or Run, where do these settings get saved? I had naively assumed that they were in the Tasks.!Boot file, but evidently not. I've looked for them in vain. TIA, With best wishes, Peter. -- Peter, \ / zfc Yb \ Prestbury, Cheltenham, Glos.
