- Here's a list of known problems that I (we) are working on to
- remedy:
-
- 1. There's no files in Applications/Perutls, Applications/Math,
- Applications/Wordproc or Applications/Spreadsheets. That was a
- result of having to ftp everything over. I just forgot about 'em.
-
- 2. There's very few editors in Editors. Similar problem to
- the above.
-
- 3. On occasion, you'll get server not responding errors. This is
- because there was an air conditioner problem in the machine room. I
- think this is all better now.
-
- 4. Bart doesn't work. We're still looking for a host machine for
- it to run on.
-
- 5. I've been particularly angry at people posting questions about
- the archive to comp.sys.atari.st. This is because the problem
- reports should be going to me, not the world, who can't do much
- about it.
-
- 6. On occasion, particular volumes in the archive won't be working.
- I don't know why this happens, other than the fact that each
- root level directory is mounted on a separate disk. It is
- possible that each of the disks could go down for backup individually
- from time to time. (Along with other possibilities I haven't even
- dreamed of yet).
-
-
-
- In short, this is a new experience for me too. I'd appreciate people
- letting me know, by mail, of any and all problems that they
- have. I'll try to remedy them as best as my schedule and
- physical location (I'm 700 miles away from umich now) will permit.
