-
- You are supposed to move DosDriver icons from Storage/DosDrivers to
- Devs/DosDrivers! Although moving them to WBStartup mounts them, too,
- it creates problem (as you have seen).
-
- The "RAD not mounted" is caused by the fact that LoadWB is executed
- after User-Startup and thus the icons in WBStartup have not yet been
- started when the RELABEL command in User-Startup is executed.
-
- I don't have a clear idea about the "wait some more" error message. Is
- it perhaps the message WB gives when a WBStartup entry does not have
- DONOTWAIT set and does not return fast enough?
-
- The "RAD already exists" is, as you said, harmless. It will be sent to
- NIL: if you put the DosDriver into Devs/DosDrivers.

-
- I never had 2.1. The 3.1 DOS Manual says in the table in section
- B.1.2.2 that it is a synonym for MOUNT=. The solution given above
- should also be in your manual!
