Indexing setup problem, help?

Hi there,

I have been been tyring to set up rear indexing on my bike for about two to three weeks. I have always rode with friciton, so this is a new thing for me. Whatever I do, I cannot get the derailleur to grab the last two cogs on my nine speed setup. Granted, the last cog isnt really used on the largest chainring, but it would be nice to have the smaller one. The problem is, I always get to about the 7th largest cog and run out of barrel adjuster!

If I adjust the limit screws I can grab it, but that effectively makes my cassette an 8 speed rather than a 9. It works fine with friction....why I cant I get it to grab in index! Argggh! Thanks.
