- Sort of. I understand that I can boot, see, the hard disk, and
- fix it with CHKDSK using the installation disks. The eventual
- goal is to boot with a pair of floppies that load Novell drivers
- and a CMD script that will rebuild parts of the drive as needed.
- Given past experience, we are expecting a high enough number of
- these cases that we'd like to make the process as automatic as
- possible. This is the only real dead end we seem to have run
- into. Any pointers as to what is different on the installation
- disks would be greatly appreciated.
