Hi Paul,
  Where is your overlay? Is it on a separate partiton? If so were the
permissions for the mounting directory changed approapriately? I've
had similar problems with my music drives that were fixed by checking
permissions both before and after the drives were mounted.

  I'm emerging amsynth as a test now. If I have problems, which I
doubt, I'll post back.
