operating system failure

2002-04-29 by Bill Sheppard

Hi All

Today (4-28), 2 days before I planned to announce the sale of my EMAX 2 I was reviewing the boot system and decided to change the boot ID from the internal harddrive (SCSI 6) to the floppy (SCSI 0) to make sure that it worked. WELL, IT DOESN'T. I have a EMU floppy with version 2.14 on it but  it doesn't recognize it - all I get is an error message stating that the disk isn't formatted. (I also have a EMU floppy with version 2.10 on it and I get the same error message when I try to boot with that as well).

So, right now it appears I have a functionless EMAX 2 unless someone out there knows a way around this problem. The annoying thing of course is that the operating system is right in the machine itself on the harddisk but it doesn't know to go there to look for it. Help!!!
