[Continued]

Tonight I called Microware to see what's going on.  He showed me how to use
"ident" to look at the info on the file.  Sure enough, it shows a bad CRC on
backup.  He also told me that I could back the disks up the hard way, using
dsave, so I am not dead in the water, and can go ahead with installation.

In the meantime, though, I guess I'd like to know:

(a) What's the easiest way to get a copy of backup that works.  He suggested
having PT send me a copy on a separate disk, but it appears that PT's Master
copy is bad.  Can I get one from Microware.

(b) I saw something in the manual that implied there's a program to recalculate
the CRC, I guess for patches.  Is this a safe thing to do?

(c) Wonder how come the two copies of OS9Boot are different????

Anybody got any thoughts/advice/similar experiences to help me?

Thanks.

Jack
