The reason I ask is that I believe most of the glitchies I've seen since the upgrade to system 5.0 and multifinder are system heap exhaustion problems. I read somewhere that the heap grew again (implying that the boot block numbers got bigger) for Multifinder. But I can't find any program that reads the blocks or writes the blocks or any documentation on what they should be. Anyone want to point me in the right direction? And why isn't this documented anywhere by Apple? And why isn't there an Apple utility to muck with them? It seems to me this is a glaring hole in the system configuration.... chuq --- Chuq "Fixed in 4.0" Von Rospach chuq@sun.COM Delphi: CHUQ
