Charlie,

There may be nothing wrong with your disks. Your main problem is that you have not told us what you 
were trying to do when you received the No Permission error. You can get that error by trying to do 
something impossible such as trying to do a CHD NAME where NAME is a file instead of a directory.

So the first thing you should try is mount a "bad" disk in say /D0, start NitrOS-9, and enter
dir -e /d0
With a "good" disk, that will display the details of everything on the disk at the main level. 
Directories will be indicated by a "d" in the Attributes column.

Tell us what you are seeing and if the above gives you a 214 error.
