I had some reliable (though 'dusty'), DOS3.3 disks and used them to hold the Kermit files from Listserv@brownvm. following the instructions pretty closely (EXEC KERMIT.*,R25 for instance), I got consistent disk trouble on both a 2GS and a couple enhanced 2es, all under DOS3.3 of course. The disk work would loop infinitely and right quickly, doing nothing all the while. This happened on various DOS3.3 floppies and in Kermits 3.79, 3.82, and (I think), 3.83. I cannot test the program anyway but I have a 'working' version from the University and the listserv files made almost the entire directory that I see on the University's disk.
