Let me be clear, "something like that" isn't going to cut it. Be precise, take
notes.
1) format it and scan it on Windows if thats the only way you can,
2) put a CDR drive in the box,
3) download and burn a Knoppix-5.x LIVE iso,
4) IF Windows claims the drive is faultless, put the drive back in the K6 box,
5) boot Knoppix,
6) run the dd to wipe the drive, carefully noting any glitches,
7) repartition the drive with fdisk,
8) do NOT format it with ext4!, just ext2.
You're making a 20 year-old system!!! Forget EVERYTHING that has happened
since then. You're going to be using a 2.6 kernel, for crying out loud!

Hi Paul and Everyone;
Thank You for the Steps..
You're making a 20 year-old system!!! Forget EVERYTHING that has happened
since then. You're going to be using a 2.6 kernel.
I am sorry that I am upsetting You, but, I don't always remember when
everything came out, I know that the Kernel will be a 2.6 something..
I have done step 1..
2) put a CDR drive in the box, I don't know if I even have a CDR, or a working
CD Player..
3) download and burn a Knoppix-5.x LIVE iso,
I can download that, somewhere I have a Knoppix Disk, but, I am not sure what
version it is, so I will Download it..
5) boot Knoppix,
6) run the dd to wipe the drive, carefully noting any glitches,
7) repartition the drive with fdisk,
These I can do..
8) do NOT format it with ext4!, just ext2. OK !
THANK YOU Marty
P.S., My main System went down last night, after eliminating different things,
it looks like the Power Supply has gone weak, this was after totally cleaning
everything to take away excessive heat, it still fails..
So I am on my Dell Computer to do my emails..
THANK YOU Marty
