OK, this is still a drive configuration problem. Since you are limited 
to two drives and the boot disk creation process with the 40 track 
distribution disks works best with a three drive system, you will need 
to take preparatory measures.
The CMDS directory on disk 40d_2 does not contain all the programs 
needed during boot disk creation. You will need copy, format, and os9gen 
none of which are on disk 40d_2. Copy is already loaded into memory. 
Format and os9gen must either be loaded into memory before running the 
scripts or must be copied over to the 40d_2 CMDS directory.
Once the above is done, boot disk creation will work. If the needed 
files are preloaded into memory, CHX should not be needed. If the files 
are copied to disk 40d_2, then the CHX is needed, will work, and the 
scripts will run to completion.
