I think you need to switch disks to the apps disk. At least if you'reor
running from disk? What machine are you on? If you've got an hdd install =
similar it's possible that the shortcut is broken, you could go to the fi=le
manager and try running from there.
Just my ideas, I'm no expert on SymbOS.

Hmm, I think if you have all 4 ROMs installed in the symbiface it should "just work".

Hi Martin,,
it seems, that the link is not correct, maybe because the system path is
not properly set.
Some notes:
- on what platform are you using SymbOS 2.1? (Amstrad CPC, MSX or Amstrad PCW?)
- if you run it directly from floppy disc, please note that the boot disc=
which contains the Control Panel application, has to be present in theere
proper drive
- if it can't be found you can start it manually: open the Startmenu,
choose "Run" and then "Browse" to select the file "appcp.exe"
- in the control panel you can edit all icon and startmenu links
(doubleclick the "desktop links" icon) as well as the system path (double click the "system" icon)
- SymbOS will always search for the control panel inside the system path,
so this has to be correct and the appcp???.exe files have to be placed th=
Hope that helps!

Hi J=C3=B6rn, yes this is one step further!!!] <
At the moment i have the SymbOS 2.0 on my CPC 6128 with Symbiface II. The control panel stuff seems to be fixed now with starting from drive be
(which is a HcX SD Floppy Emulator).
But why the disk is still need if i have all 4 ROMs placed on the
Symbiface II?
The next step will be to install 2.1 on the Symbiface II but there i have
a problem with roman if i call &2000 nothing happens.

The ROMs only hold the OS not the applications. If you have a symbifacee
the best thing to do is install everything to the C drive, then you don't need any floppy disks.

Sorry but you have to look on page 21 of the PDF document for setting the systempath.

I know this manual is only for 3.0 but maybe it is helpfully already. (at least you can see how you have to set the system path) and there is a lis=t
of error codes if you get one during boot.

Hi again,g
the ROMs only contain the operating system itself and are used for bootin=
it in a fast way like from a ram disc. There are no additional applicatio=ns
(e.g. the control panel) inside the roms.a
I recommend you to copy all additional files to the IDE device (maybe in =
dedicated folder, which would be the system path then) connected to the SYMBiFACE II, in this case you don't need any floppy disc access anymore.
You could also use the SymbOS rom manager ( http://www.symbos.de/apps.htm?2#marke3 ) to install the ROMs in the SF2. Unfortunately I am not experienced with Roman.
