Well, to create my own emergency disks (Disinfectant, DiskFit Direct...) I took the "Install Me First" disk from my PB 160, stripped it of the extra files (Autoremounter, the Installer etc...) leaving only the System and the Enabler. Now copy the program (Norton in this case) onto the disk and rename it Installer. Now it should boot and run the program you just renamed. This assumes that you don't need to use the Finder though, since the Install Me First disk does not include a Finder. (By the way, you can rename the disk.) Larry -- "Spell Checker?
