[comp.sys.mac] Mac disk erasing

co200cah@sdcc13.UUCP (04/18/87)

I have some old disks that came with my mac that I want to erase but
after I use the "Erase Disk" desk top function each time I insert
the disk it tells me that the disk needs repairs and do I want to
repair it.  It also will not write files to the disks.  The disks in
question are those that have the junk promo-programs on them and the
spare system disk that you get with a new machine.  In as much as
there are about 15 machines around here we could use the old disks
for something more than cluttering up the place.  Anyone know how to
really erase them?  I tried the running them thru the library
machine trick proposed a few weeks ago.  Not helpful.

Please mail responses as I don't get much time to read the news.

Thanks,
Bruce
