sounds like you've done a format /s (for system files) or you maybe have some bad bits on the diskette. also i assume you read the instructions about using rawrite.exe ??? this is essential hope this helps andrew perry andrew@shoal.net.au > > =)I've been looking through your site, and see you have install instuctions > =)for DOS..

I also have this same situation and downoaded the boot.flp from ftp then when I wanted to put it an a disk it did not fit. The file size is 1.47 and a disk is only 1.38 after formatting. What gives?
