Subject: RTs with bad floppy drives

John, Rita:

	In re-partitioning RTs, I came across the following machines with
suspect diskette drives.  Either the RT ignores the floppy in the diskette
drive when it starts up, or it has difficulty reading from the 2nd install
floppy, crashes, and halts.  The machines and the serial numbers are:


			M2-225-4 (crashes on 2nd install diskette)
			26-0002555

			M2-225-5 (ignores diskettes)
			26-0002558

			M4-167-2 (ignores diskettes)
			26-0002702

			M4-167-7 (ignores diskettes)
			26-0002453

								Pete

M2-225-4 has been formatted, and still receives HDC0 errors. P.C.Support
         should be notified.
M2-225-5 has been formatted, and the floppy drive will not read floppy's 
         including the diagnostic floppy's. P.C.Support should be notified.
M4-167-2 is up and running fine. No service required.
M4-167-7 has been formatted, and hangs on a code 22. Will not read floppy's
         including the diagnostic floppy's. P.C.Support should be notified.
                                                          
                                                          --Lou
