- I have found the same problem under 2.04 (it worked fine under 1.3).
- The only thing I have found is that this doesn't happen for me if the RAD:
- I use is the same size as a normal floppy. It is only when I reduce the
- number of tracks that I get the problem. Seeing as you have 3 megs of ram
- this solution might work for you.
