Interestingly, illegal in MSDOS and PCDOS, but both FreeDOS and DRDOS accept this layout (I tested). Anyway, shouldn't FDISK make the right layout when requested to create multiple partitions? > ... it looks to me a little like something is > trying to write long filenames into your directory > but not using the correct storage format or method. Yes, it looks possible. Another possibility, if these entries appear only when running NDN or nicscan, but not on a dir comand, is that something is writing correct LFNs, but the versions of those programs Marcos uses do not recognize them.
