Thanks for that...  Now I remember why I stopped at 6.20 in my last
recovery. Lots of extra utils taking up extra space that I rarely or
refused to use, even when it was my primary OS.

Good to know that you can still nab the floppies retail in a pinch though. 
I would probably be in the same boat if I needed to create a new HD after
losing the current one.
