Sorry, it's more of a "Is this a fileserver disc?" type 
utility.  Identifies when it was created, etc.  It does start reading a map 
of sectors used, for recovery use, but this version of the prog doesn't 
actually use it.

Ian's message of 21:55 last night sounds like he knows what he's talking 
about.  I'd just add: ensure you power down/disconnect the winchester while 
running WFSInit to make sure you don't overwrite the wrong disc...

... I have a copy of WFSInit 1.00 "with lots of bits by PLJones, 1988" 
according to the comments, just in case it's of use.  (Seems to offer a lot 
of options, not sure how many the original version does!!)
