Hi.  I recently posted about a disk problem reported by SUM II which
turned out to be a result of interaction between SUM II and
Multifinder, rather than a true hard disk problem.

This post, however, is entirely UNRELATED, since I am getting a new
error on a computer at another site.  When I use SUM II's "Quick Fix"
feature, I get:

SCSI mapping is OK
Volume Info Block OK
Allocation map is invalid
Directory is bad
Done

SUM II says that it is "unable to repair" the error.  Does anyone know
whether Norton Utilities for the Mac will repair such an error?  I
believe that I've had this error for quite a while, undetected, since
it wasn't until today that I tried Quick Fix.

Thanks,
Ralph
