Hi all,
Just an update on where I am at and the problems I am encountering.

By using my minix demo disk, I was able to create a new boot disk by
booting minix and mounting the hd parttition. Afterwards a
cp Image /dev/at0 created the boot disk. Clutzy, but it worked.

Using minix I made a fs on a 1.2 meg disk and copied some files to
it. When I try to mount it under Linux i get the following error;
--error on--
floppy I/O error
dev 0208, block 1
mount: error 16
--error off--

I also note than using the new fsck program which seems to run fine on
the hard disk I get a last line to the aboave error of can't read super
block.

I even unplugged my second drive and told the bios setup program that it
doesn't exist.

Any thoughts anyone?
