Think i figured out part of the issue. Floppy I am using is just bugging out. back to the drawing board - need to get a usb floppy hmmm Mac works well - just need to actually figure the thing out ;-) Hooking up to the Cisco switches w/o serial has been painful experience - however and all the usb serial ports we have - no go... have to buy new there overall - its a better machine by far however - even w/ my learning curve.
