.htaccess and 301's

[Joe Germann]

I am trying to cut over from OScommerce to PrestaShop and am having a .htaccess and redirect 301 problem. I have firendly URL's turned on and generated the .htaccess file via Prestashop. This works just fine however I want to add in my own redirects from my old web site and when I do that I get a hard server failure.

Any help would be appreciated.

Joe
