I agree -- A floppy utility might be able to repair it though if you can't
find the installer on the net -- I'm sort of new (again) to dealing with
floppy problems (as I mostly work with disk images, so if a disk is bad I
just re-make it) so I'm not sure what's best here -- Norton Disk Doctor
might be fine on an High Density disk of this era. RAM is definitely not
your issue here. The good news is there are some strong Newton support
groups around the web (die-hards who just won't let it die) who might be
able to supply a new image as well. Did you check Apple's support website
for older downloads (they might be more forthcoming for the Newton than some
older Systems)?
