julf veteran Registered: 01/10/2001 Posts: 1307 Loc: Amsterdam, The Netherlands	Trying to add a 120G disk, I am trying to run the "Mark Lord Special Disk Builder" (builder_bigdisk.upgrade), it gets to "Selecting pump device" but then nothing further happens. The disk is a 120G Samsung, connected as the main and only disk. Any hints/suggestions?

So I wonder what's strange in this case. Master/slave jumper? Any chance of a serial port capture (log) ? ??

Are the display boards of MK II:s and Rio's interchangeable?
