- Since I started this discussion, I thought I'd comment
- at this point. I did get Multidos and it does work for me
- under 2.05. I was initially reluctant to use it because
- when I tried it under 1.3 I could never get it to work.
- Every time I tried to read a PC disk my system crashed.
- One thing I found under 2.05 was that I didn't have to
- add anything to the Mountlist file which I thought was
- mandatory under 1.3. Anyway, its working for me now although
- I have seen enough reports of it not working for other people
- under ill-defined conditions that I'm watching things
- carefully. Fortunately I mostly use it for transferring
- lha files so there is a built in CRC integrity check.
