   Urrk.  So this guy won't boot from a standard Kaypro II system disk 
at all?

   I picked this up from Jim Battle over the weekend (Thanks, Jim!), 
knowing that the Rodime drive was developing bad sectors.  It *was* 
booting to a string of Bad Sector errors and a prompt, but we didn't 
have a head-park utility, and now it won't boot at all - stops at a 
"Boot Error".

   I have access to an Osborbe Executive and apparently Media Magic, and 
there are a couple of ARK archives on the Simtel mirrors for the Advent 
TurboROM.  Is there anyway to generate a boot disk from that?
