Scandisk doesn't report any problems also. How 4DOS can have problems? Doesn't it use standard DOS or Windows syscalls? > [problems with locales] This is indeed a big headache for me.

But I believe that in the meantime something working in real life is already useful. Dima To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe current" in the body of the message
