I just got done calling the hot line (1-800-922-0354) to see if this upgrade could be done for those of us with a 3b1 and the Dos-73 Co-processor board--NO GO! If anyone knows anything different, please let me (us) know. -- John F. Godfrey, Pastor "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way and the truth and the life.

If anyone knows anything different, please let me (us) |>know. Well the DOS-73 board isn't running AT&T MSDOS. It's running a special version (I assume developed at Alloy) for the DOS-73 board. It gives the look and feel of MSDOS, but it's missing things. It claims to be version 3.1, which it might really be close to. I doubt one could take MSDOS 3.30a or 4.01 and reconfigure the system. Never tried it. If some brave sole wants to ... I'd suggest, inserting the MSDOS 3.30a disk, boot off drive "A:" and then see if it works. I don't remember if you can boot disks, but if you can't you could make a copy of /usr/lib/ua/DOS/dvd001 (or whatever that path is) for virtual drive C: ... and then issue these commands: C>A: A>SYS C: ... Let me know if it works! :-) -Lenny -- | Lenny Tropiano ICUS Software Systems [w] +1 (516) 589-7930 | | lenny@icus.islp.ny.us Telex; 154232428 ICUS [h] +1 (516) 968-8576 | | {ames,pacbell,decuac,hombre,sbcs,attctc}!icus!lenny attmail!icus!lenny | +------- ICUS Software Systems -- PO Box 1; Islip Terrace, NY 11752 -------+
