 TOPIC -----------------------------------------------------------

 I work at an Apple IIGS (1MB RAM) that is on a network with Macintosh SE/30
 with 4MB RAM and HD80 SC File Server.

 After updating the GS/OS system files on the server via the Apple IIGS
 Installer, updating Aristotle likewise, and reinstalling the Apple II Setup
 disk, I received the following error message:

 Sorry, system error $0046 occurred while loading the start FST file.

 I checked all access privileges, and they are not a problem.  Can you help?

 DISCUSSION ------------------------------------------------------

 The $0046 error is a "file not found" error.  There are two ways this can
 happen when starting up from the network.

 1) The Icons folder and the System folder need privileges set to the Bulletin
   Board item found in the GS/OS Icon Info menu item.  If these folders are
 set
   otherwise, GS/OS cannot "find" the files inside these two folders.

 2) There is a file missing or misplaced on the server volume that the
   Apple IIGS requires for startup.  Usually reinstalling GS/OS onto the
 server
   resolves the problem.
