Thanks for the hint, I have not been aware of the issue up to now. I forwarded
your mail to Edward, who is working on LFN. Probably the next release will
support COD 7.02, too, because it s only a matter of version number checks.

For the moment, I would like to recomment reading my OpenDOS web-pages .../~opendeng.html
There I describe how to mix files from 7.01 and 7.02. With some rare
exceptions, the 7.02 files also run with a 7.01 kernel, so it was quite easy to
install the 7.01 kernel by just overwriting IBMBIO.COM and IBMDOS.COM
with the older ones. You can also use my IBMBIO.COM alpha3 (available
from my web-pages) in conjunction with 7.01 and 7.02.

 Matthias
