## 12. The original msinfo file

Here is the msinfo file required to find the "Total Special Sectors". It was included by the original author of this HOWTO in an encoded form. First copy the text from the line "begin 755 msinfo.gz" to the line "end" into a temporary file say temp.uu. Then uudecode this file, and finally gunzip to get msinfo file.

> `

>     # uudecode temp.uu
>     # gunzip  msinfo.gz

> `

Now run the program using the command

> `

>     # ./msinfo /dev/winswap

> `

The program displays the boot sector information for given partition as well as the "Total Special Sectors" for the drive.
