- I mangaged to solve my (daughter's) problem, but you wouldn't
- believe how I did it given my job title. I disconnected the hard
- disk from the controller (causing a read error requestor to pop up)
- and was able to save the files to the RAD: disk, reconnect the hard
- disk and reboot.
-
- But I'm still looking for a better/upgraded version of
- billsdisk.device. (I figure what happened is that the driver was
- waiting for the disk to respond, and either the disk had not recieved
- the request, or the driver had missed the response. On a clear disk
- you can seek forever....)
