This is really strange. Both the recently compiled df and df from
fil316b.zip ought to pick the data from INT21 AX=1510, which ought to
be the same.

The problem is the block size. If you have a CDROM it has block size
2048 and nothing else. If you see a different block size that is a
lie.

I think I and Eli agree on that WINDOZE properties values are not
exactly correct all the time.

Thank you for running the tests!


Right,
