Roger's site down, need to format two 100GB drives - 21/08/2005 01:07

Will using the disk builder image definitely not work on 100GB drive? I need to get them done before this coming weekend and Roger's site has been down for a few days now. If disk builder won't work, does anyone have Roger's instructions saved somewhere?

You can use the service of www.archive.org. A copy of Roger's site is here.

Without the formatting being retained, it looks like that may be a little difficult to follow. But, if that's all I have to work with, I will try it. Thanks.

PS- Google's cache of the site also doesn't keep the page formatting.

Looks okay to me. Just type the stuff in bold.

The formatting is still there. The reason why it doesn't look right is because the CSS file can't be loaded.

Thanks, I didn't notice that stuff in bold the first and second time.

Yeah, my UPS decided to stop powering the relevant PC, because the battery's on its last legs. This despite the fact that it's not supposed to be a problem.

Obviously, it did this the very day that I set off to Scotland for a few days, rather than when I was here and could do something about it.

A new battery pack will be ordered this week.

You certainly can. Ordered. That's about half the price that APC UK were quoting. Thanks.

Yeah, APC always overprices for what are usually very standard sealed batteries.
