I've had a problem getting rawrite towork correctly on my machine (a
Gateway PII 450).  Everytime I tried to create the boot disks, I would
get a bad sector on the disks.

I went here:

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/6.1/dosutils/rawrite/

and downloaded rawrite from them. [not rawrite3, just rawrite]  I was
then able to get a clean boot disk.  If anyone is having trouble like
this with rawrite I would suggest using the one from the above link.
