Thanks for the info. However, this might be a bit extreme... I figure
I can get the machine to boot into Linux, and I could then reformat the disk
using pdisk/fdisk...
I have an external Syquest EzDrive (135MB) which I can use, if I REALLY
have to have the MacOS to boot Linux, but this is very non-ideal, and may
not work.
