Just a couple additional questions… What version of Format? There were a lot of changes to format a couple months back. What type of diskette? 3-1/2, 5-1/4? 1.44, 1.2, 720, 360, other? When you say “unformatted”, do they require a low-level format or just a DOS file-system format? :-) > > _______________________________________________ > Freedos-devel mailing list > Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
