- I need to ask a favor of somebody:
-
- One of my System 6 disks (Install, to be specific) has mysteriously developed
- several I/O errors while sitting in a stack of disks on the computer desk;
- it had its write protect ON, and was sitting in the middle of a stack of disks;
- almost all of the other disks are fine (except for two others, one of which
- won't boot and the other of which is totally ruined. But that's a different
- story). Of course, I never bothered to get around to making a backup of the
- System 6 disks. (Yes, I'm an idiot, I know it, and I've made backups now.)
-
- Anyway, could somebody please pack and binSCII the Install disk, and e-mail
- it to me? My preferred InterNET address is mostanik@heartland.bradley.edu,
- although all of my other addresses are set to forward to this one. Also,
- when you send the disk, please make sure that you split it in half and put
- each half in its own message; in other words, send it in *TWO* messages.
- This account has a time limit on it, and I don't have enough time per session
- to download a single message containing even a compressed 800k disk (I've
- tried before).
-
- I would *very* much appreciate it if somebody could do this for me. Don't
- bother to send e-mail asking about it first; just go ahead and send it (unless
- you're reading this message like a week after it was posted; it's currently
- 12/22/92 15:33 CDT). I would like to this have as soon as possible, because
- I've promised to give a copy of it to someone else (that's how I found the
- errors in the first place).
-
- Thanks in advance!
