Sorry, I don't have time now. My win95 box crashed yesterday due to software error. I used Norton rescue disk to recover from the crash but I forgot I was using the lilo swap device option (to boot win95 from the second hard drive), then Norton swapped the partitions of the drives :-(( No more linux access till now: I have to install a Debian core system on a removable magneto-optical disk to be able to run dd then restore the partition tables by hand (nice linux which could be installed on arbitrary medium :-) ) But Norton disk doctor is unable to restore my Win95 disk... I'm reformatting the disk to reinstall win95 from scratch... Regards. -- Eric Delaunay | "La guerre justifie l'existence des militaires. [EMAIL PROTECTED] | En les supprimant."
