I just bought a used Datavue Spark (via UseNet) and am having trouble
with DOS. It came with 2.11 that works OK, but I'm used to 3.2, 3.3 and
4.0, so I decided to use a newer DOS. But 4.0 won't boot at all, and
when I boot with 3.x and try to format a disk it formats it for 360K.
The 3.2 works fine on a NEC MultiSpeed, but it seems that the 2.11 DOS
is the only one that knows that my drives are 720K (even though all of
the DOS's are original 3.5" disks!). So can I use the 3.x or 4.0 DOS
somehow, or am I stuck with 2.11?
