I had the same problem, with a 2.1G drive and an NCR53C810. This system was running 2.0.5A built from source, on 2.0-R labelled disk. Solved (finally) by booting dos, running fdisk, making a dos partition of the whole disk, and then booting from the boot.flp and slice and labelling the disk. According to Rodney things aren't happy if the slicer is fed a number of cylinders larger than 1024. (Shouldn't it complain then?) Russell
