I have a bad disk sector in sd0a and it seems like I'm going to need to boot from a floppy to fix this. Does anyone have a procedure in hand that they could post on how to accomplish this? ================================================== Jack Valko | - Cyberspace - System Administrator | 300 Queen Anne Ave. N. #396 cyberspace.com | Seattle, WA 98109-4599 cyberspace.net | (206) 505-5577 ==================================================
