The last disk is not a "full" disk image, so make sure you format the disk with DOS first. I've had this happen a few times. (I suppose you could use Linux tools to lay down a DOS filesystem as well, but I'm assuming you don't have another Linux box handy) -- Nathan Norman MidcoNet - 410 South Phillips Avenue - Sioux Falls, SD 57104 mailto://[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.midco.net finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for PGP Key: (0xA33B86E9) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
