I've noticed a number of times that if a floppy disk is damaged enough that
the disk can't be repaired "This disk needs minor repairs...blah blah,"
but not damaged enough to be unreadable, it is impossible to reformat the
disk from the finder.  I usually stick it in an IBM to format it.
Am I missing something?
