- [stuff about System 6 crashing regularly for him]
-
- I have similar problems with System 6. Applications (especially the
- Finder) crash often, and occasionally I get corrupted files. Sometimes
- I'm working in the Finder and suddenly lots of files appear to have
- weird names with strange characters in them. When this happens if I reboot
- immediately usually the system is back to normal.
-
- I have tried to track this down, including removing DAs etc., checking
- my memory (4 megs on a GS Juice +), and reinstalling the system. It still
- happens. The only thing I can think of is that it has something to do with
- my InnerDrive 40 MB hard disk. Maybe the driver is incompatible or
- something. However I never had this problem with System 5.0.4, and I've
- tried removing the InnerDrive driver and letting GS/OS generate its own,
- but the crashes still happen.
-
- Hopefully the problem will be fixed in System 6.0.1.
