Re: AS1200 : Boot help!

[James Kurtenbach <jwkurtenbach sysmatrix net>]

OK, more details.   Disk Druid complained about not enough space at the 
beginning of the disk for the boot partition. It says to make sure it 
has at least 3 meg free.   The disk is a 9gig dec drive (10krpm, 
rz1d).   I have used the disk for vms and other os's before.   Do I need 
to do a low level format or something?
