[chirp_users] Help needed, can't write to Yaesu FT-60

[D.J.J. Ring, Jr.]

If it's a bad cable even Linux Live CD disk won't help, but seriously, I
have a Live CD disk everywhere I work.  When the boss demands that "his"
computer work, I can take out the Linux CD pop it in and fix Windows.

Gparted has a newer module - gpart which is excellent for recovery of bad
disks.

Of course there's more.

But it is a good thing to have - I also recommend www.vinuxproject.org if
you want to see what is being done for visually impaired computer users -
we have about 30% of our users are radio amateurs, so we are always
interesting in accessible ham software.
