The raid controller is a Mylex DAC960P/PD.

I have tried to copy msgbuf to a floppy to get it to a
machine that I could email, but every time I try to
mount the floppy I get a no such file or device error
message.

I am not sure how to get the 2.0 boot floppies. 
Building them is beyond my ability.
