Lines: 10 I have a mac plus with a MICAH 80MB hard disk and am using Silverlining to format and prepare the drive. I am having problems doing this ( there are bad sectors on the drive which nee to be mapped out ). I would be grateful if someone would give me some directions on how I could format and prepare my hard disk as easily as possible. I have used the apple formating program but it fails to complete the setup of the drive ( I get -32 errors ). I dont believe the drive is bad, only that some of the sectors are bad and need to be mapped out. francois
