George -

Your problem is one of the 4 possible things I'd suggested...

Instead of opening /DD@ for READ, you're opening /DD for READ+DIR.

The difference is monumental. OPening /DD for DIR+READ simply opens the ROOT
directory for reading. OPening /DD@ for READ opens the whole DISK so that you
may read it sector by sector (including the LSN0, bitmaps, and everything
else). That appears to be the major problem here (still pre-coffee here, so I
haven't digested all of the rest).

Pete
