Try http://www.irrelevant.com/bbc/00000015.zip

(It's a single sided disc image.  )

I've only ever re-formatted the disc. Not usually a big deal, since
most times there's little on the drive on the ADFS side bar the
fileserver code itself.  Even the econet initialiser itself is too
dumb to cope wiht an existing partition - it tries to reduce the drive
space further..  It might be possible to write something based on it
that does the reverse, but I've not heard of it existing.
