HELP!!! It seems that one of my friends was doing some consulting work for a firm that owns an Osborne computer. OK, so what is the problem? The problem is that while my friend was on vacation the business accidentally reformated the system disk. Still no problem... Well, as it turns out the company forgot to mention that that copy of the system disk was the only copy, the orginal disks that came with the Osborne I were lost in a recent move. Now that is a problem, they still have a couple of bootable disks, but no longer have such nices things as FORMAT, PIP, STAT, etc... Can anybody help me out here... I can probably supply them with the more generic programs from my CPM library for my Heath, but I'm afraid there is no way I can come up with FORMAT. I will be more than willing to send someone a disk and mailer, if someone could copy the stuff onto it and return it I would be very happy. I could probably come up with proof of ownership for the machine if anyone wanted to see it. Thanks, -kevin -- Kevin D. Bond ...!mcnc!katylied!kdb -or- kdb%katylied@mcnc.org
