I just encountered a situation where a system without a floppy drive 
failed with some disk corruption within files (not fsck issues).  In 
the process of trying to recover it, I found I needed to use the fixit 
disk.  I have used the floppy version successfully several times 
before, but this machine doesn't have a floppy drive.  Sysinstall 
indicated there was an equivallent fixit cd.  Where do you find that?  
I found a back door to get this machine corrected, but I need to be 
better prepared for the next failure.
