That series of articles can be very helpfull.  But would be far more 
helpfull if compiled into a printable pdf I could take to the machine 
for handy reference. Bookmarked FFR of course.

Now what I need is to write a size adder so I can figure out just how 
much data actually lives on these seagates, as I was useing about 110 
megabytes of that maxtor 7120s. Theres also 256 35 track SS vdisks 
liveing in the top of the nominally 480 megs formatted with a cluster 
size of 4 formatting. Details to work out obviously.  If this series of 
web pages can be merged into a pdf, it would sure save these old wore 
out legs a lot of trips down, and back up a flight of stairs.

Thanks to Allen for writing it up as a web blog.
