Glad to hear it all worked out OK.  I had a feeling it would.

As final replies:

 The disk is write protected isn't it?

I normally just boot the disk and then eject it until it is needed again.

Now, it's just me, but I write protect it after I do any and all backups,
then leave it in.  If the power fails, or I need to reboot, then I don't
have to make a trip over and push the diskette in.

Later

Tony

One problem with this is the diskette window will be open and it will 
collect dust on the upper surface.  After several months of operation 
-  a reboot will grind the dust into the media and you get a boot failure.

Keep backup copies of your LEAF diskettes.  Always backup changes to 
both diskette sets.  This is good advice even when you boot from CD 
and save configuration data on the floppy.  I've experienced the 
frustration of a power failure followed by LEAF not booting because of 
dust.
