	A word of warning about BAD. (I haven't read ahead to see if there
	are any replys....but I will post anyway!)

	I purchased BAD, and tried it on my 80 MEG Seagate w/Kronos controller
	The disk was partitioned into 2 partitions the main DH0:, was the boot
	partition and DH1: was just mounted. DH1: optimized fine, but DH0: was
	trashed!!!!! ....... I repartitioned and created a .5meg boot partition
	and then BAD worked fine on DH0:

	**** WARNING: If using a Kronos (CLTD) controller....DO NOT OPTIMIZE
	the BOOT PARTITION ****

	Unless this is just a glitch....I don't know???!??
