We think the user actually tried to write the base14-10.bin disk to floppy but because of the filename length and that rawrite doesn't understand this 9.3 filename, the base14-1.bin image actually got written. This is fixed in the CVS boot-floppies, since this file is now disks-1.44/base-10.bin . -- .....Adam Di [EMAIL PROTECTED]<URL:http://www.onShore.com/>
