If he still has the original system floppies, use the floppy=20
'Utilities'/'Helpfunctions'. Insert the floppy and hold down the ****FT=20
key, while booting the PB.

Well, the problem is that you need to download all image files for=20
either the system 7.0.1 or 7.5.3 and find out which one that is the=20
'Utilities' floppy image. In System 7.5.3 you need the 'Utilites=20
2'/'Helpfunctions 2' floppy. Use the DiscCopy 2-4.2 to make a bootable=20
floppy of one of these, and it's again just to hold down the****FT key=20
with the floppy in the drive, while booting.
If you/he has the old Norton Utilities 3.2.x, you can there make=20
bootable 'NDD Startup' and 'SpeedDisk Startup' floppies, using the=20
'Startup disc builder' within the Norton Utilities. You can also use the =
'Emergency Disk 1' (maybe Emergency Disk 2) to boot the PB and from this =
one repaqir with NDD 3.2.x, which is on this emergency floppy.
The full systems 7.0.1 and 7.5.3 are here (USEnglish)
