The primary FDD on my IBM Personal Portable Computer (from 1981) crapped out, I can't get it to boot into DOS. I think I may need one of those old 5.25" floppy disks that would automatically align the drive... anyone have one?

In the olden days only Computer Repair Shops would have them but I doubt any still do.
