Is there any way to forcefeed DOS 3.3 to Merge so that it will recognize
the 1.44MB 3.5" floppy I have as drive B? Sys V/386 recognizes it very
nicely, but Merge formats it as a 1.2MB thing. Thanks.

I *think* you can use driver.sys to get the format right. -- bill davidsen (davidsen@crdos1.crd.GE.COM -or- uunet!crdgw1!crdos1!davidsen) "The world is filled with fools.

Merge contains DOS 3.2 and it doesn't support 1.44 MB floppies (at least, my manual doesn't show an /f: value for a 1.44 MB floppy). -- Pete Holsberg UUCP: {...!rutgers!}princeton!mccc!pjh Mercer College CompuServe: 70240,334 1200 Old Trenton Road GEnie: PJHOLSBERG Trenton, NJ 08690 Voice: 1-609-586-4800
