Use fdimage.exe to create your floppies, not rawrite - especially if you're under Windows 2000. Bad Sector error means there is a bad spot on the floppy. Oh... and BOOT.FLP only works with 2.88 disks... use the other two files you have. Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
