Well, here's an update: I adjusted my FILES= line up to 100, (it's the
only line in my CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC just sets path) and I still
can't use floppies. I can't format DOS formatted floppies under
Executor (I get an Executor message that the format can't be verified),
and when I try to Find Floppy on a Mac HD floppy, I get punted back to
DOS with an error message and register dump (it scrolls by very quickly,
so I haven't tried to capture it yet--would it be worthwhile?).
Let me know what else I can tell you to help.
