Davide, thanks for this as it makes the bug (almost) reproducable.
almost, because you didn't specify config.sys/autoexec.bat is this reproducible with both empty/hitting F5? > Volume in drive A has no label > Volume Serial Number is CF38-00D8 > Directory of A:\ > DIR TXT 0 13/11/24 18.10 > 1 file(s) 0 bytes > 729.088 bytes free this is OK! redirected files are created new with size 0, and given their real size only after finishing the redirection. the above mentioned behaviour of FreeDOS kernel is definitively a problem. just to exclude the unthinkable: your floppy with 720k has a somewhat unusual size; most tests these days are done with 1,4 MB floppies. how do these behave?
