Re: (ASCEND) Problems loading b.p75



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1


I've always used the b.p75, and this was the one I was trying to load into my 

P75, which is the antique with the slide switch (Am I bitter that my brand 
new hardware has become antiquated within 2 weeks of my purchase?  NAAAH).

When I tried the b.p75 image, it said it couldn't decompress the file ID, it 
didn't give a warning that the file was not correct.  I couldn't even get 
past it using the -f switch.  My guess is that I"m gonna have to back down to 

a version that doesn't have the check (5.0ApXX) and load it from there.
