That's funny... I used rawrite to make boot/root disks under Windows 95 and it worked just fine. Hmm... Try starting the Win95 machine in MS-DOS mode (press F8 when booting) and then try rawrite. Another (more likely) cause is that you're feeding rawrite a corrupted disk image. Try downloading the root/boot disks again... Christian
