I was talking about the floppy disk itself (because I know there was a floppy disk called 'Btae.d' in the package I shipped with the LC.

It was wrecked in the process of manual removal. The drive also died... >"Flop" is apparently a Dutch diminutive (...0 and we become confused. I'll stick to floppy disk :)) And I've just posted a message to the owner with a billion <cmd>-<period> prescription. Hope it works!
