Hello. I need a boot disk, I think.
Right now I have only one disk, which worked an hour ago, then I typed
something by accident (fat-fingered it) and the disk drive ran for a
second, now the disk seems corrupt. So I can't boot this disk anymore,
booting with it brings me to the memory dump asterisk prompt. When I
get out of that to a regular prompt. The disk commands do not work, but
basic commands do work. So 'init hello' and 'catalog' and such give
syntax errors, which I assume is because I can't boot this disk. I was
under the impression that the iie rom contained enough information for
me to format a new disk with init hello. I guess not. Now I have no
good disks. Are there any tricks to get this disk reformatted? I need
a couple blank dos3.3 disks so I can save my basic files. Can anyone
help me here?
