: Was this with 7.01 or 7.02?  The 7.02 nwcdex contains many fixes.
: I used to have a problem like this, but it went away in 7.02.

Yeah, must find some room on my drive for that - my friend has it on his HD 
and may let me download it.

: With luck and a following wind, DPMI will be usable in release 7.03.
Usable, yes, but excellent? Bugfree? (Not that I'm criticising...) 8-)

: I don't know of an offical buglist, but I've heard of plans to publish a
: list of fixes on the DRDOS website, and the latest versions of the
: utilities as they are updated.

Ah cool, I'll wait until I see the updates then...

Meanwhile, I'm just having fun _manually_ trying to install Redhat from a non-
cooperative CD-ROM onto 20 megs - I've got as far as plonking a few binaries 
and some libraries on drive, now I just have to work out how to make cm206cd 
work as a block device...once I get _that_ problem sorted out, I'll be sweet.
Of course then, I have to find an ESDI controller for my 380 M ESDI drive...

Well, enough of my blathering (read: moaning my butt off!!) and onto other 
messages from other people...

Cheers all
The Viking
