I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who is experiencing reproducible problems with `fdimage', and would be prepared to spend a few minutes running a debugging version of the program, and send me the output. `Fdimage' was intended to replace `rawrite', which has significant problems of its own; and it would be useful to have a utility that works reliably for everyone. If anyone can assist, please mail me directly, and I'll send an updated version of the program which includes a debugging option. Thanks. -- Robert Nordier
