668.0. "START disk troubles" by PEOVAX::LEWIS (RONCO makes the best board popper...) Mon Nov 13 1989 15:54

    Has anyone out there been having trouble accessing side 2 of START
    disks?  
    
    I enter my configuration on boot up & go into the menu for copying
    side 2, & it starts to copy side 2 then I get a diskerr which tells
    me data on the disk may be damaged.  This has happened to me on both
    November & December 1989 issues.  In the menu, there is a box for
    copying both sides.  On my system that box can't be accessed.
    
    My configuration is a 1040ST.  Drive A is a 3.5", 720K.  Drive B is a
    5.25", 360K.
    
    Is it something I'm doing (or not doing) the problem or are my disks 
    bad?  
    
    			Carl.
