Yes, I believe the partition does still exist, but I'll have to check. Same as you, I figured worst case I could run it off floppy. I'm planning an upgrade on the machine in a few weeks and thought I might be able to fix it to it would run off the partition. I don't have the machine here, what can I run to view the partitions while the system is running? Something I could do through SSH?
Thanks for your input.
