Broken dir
There is a fault in a directory that makes it unreliable. You should stop using
that directory and any directories it contains. You may be able to copy some
of the files from it; if you can, copy them on to a different disc.
1. Select NETMGR.
2.
If the disc is a hard disc, stop using that directory and copy as many files
as you can from that directory to another part of the directory structure
(see Copying
files and directories
in Chapter 3).
3.
If the disc is a floppy disc, copy as much of its contents to another disc
and reformat the disc with the error on it (see Formatting discs, in
Chapter 3).
4.
Restore any files that wouldn't copy from the most recent backup of the
disc (see
Retrieving a backup file,
in Chapter 3).
