Server died and on reboot, it wants to erase the password files! (fsck errors). I had this happen a while back and fixed everything using my original floppies. Well, as luck would have it, they're bad! I can't get either of my BSDI servers to boot with them. I need a way to make those disks, or at least a bootable set. I've got the CD with the boot images on it, but don't know how to get them to floppy. Also, I'm getting "blue line" errors from the floppy controller on my good box that says something about "unexpected interrupt". Help! Anyone got an answer? Since this is so urgent, please email me with any suggestions. Thanks, Brent brent@vivid.net
