Hello,

When returning from the OSX partition to the OS9 partition via the start
up disk of the X I got, already twice, a strange notice telling me this:

" Something went wrong:
Error number: -44
File Name: .DS_Store
Volume Name:

Echooo! ( as the OK button to be pressed... )"

Who is Echooo and what does all that mean.
Any help and explanations.
TIA

.DS_Store is an invisible file created by the MacOS X Finder to record Icon positions, or something like that. You can safely delete it from MacOS 9 (if you use ResEdit to flip the invisibility bit), or from MacOS X via the Terminal. That may clear up the error.
