It's not in the Marko Schuster PC110 FAQ, however I've been unable to
find Claude M. Landry's PC110 FAQ, everyones links are broken:(

Wahoo!! io=0x3bc seems to work - or at least I get to the screen to setup
tcp/ip - thanks!!!!

OK, I tried to check the drive using fdisk, as atenka nospam at netusa1.net
suggested, and found that one of the partions I created using Disk Druid
can't be deleted - then I tried partion magic, which won't touch the
drive - it tells me that it can't read the first sector... Which I guess
explains why fdisk won't touch it:(
Can I do a low level format from dos??
