I remember a couple other people having the same problem I am, but searching
through earlier postings has revealed no solution, so here goes again.
I am using MSH: on my external floppy, using the example from the supplied
Mountlist. If I insert an MS-DOS (well, OK, so it's an OS/2) floppy, I
can do a DIR, ls, or whatever. If I insert an unformatted floppy, the disk
just spins if I try to do anything with it (including run messyfmt). If I
remove the disk, I get a requester saying that I must reinsert it. Hitting
Cancel a couple of times will lock up the machine. (No Guru, just everything
locks up.)
I am using the ARP Mount command, and, as I said, it works OK on formatted
floppies. If you have licked this problem already, I would appreciate any
help you can give me on it.
Thanks...
-Chris
