Re: floppy error

[Kevin Noseworthy - Specialty Software]

The "out of memory error" is likely a red herring.   My floppy works 
fine and I get the same error if I try to access it without a floppy in 
the drive.   I would suggest you try copy files to your floppy from 
linux first.

Dear colleague,

I have installed dosemu-1.2.0-1.i386.rpm  on my RH 8.0 machine.  I use it for 
bookkeeping program that is written for DOS.

I have one very strange problem with floppy drive while running dosemu.
Actually, it happens that when trying to read from floppy while in dosemu
prompt c:\ it shows on screen the following error:
Error reading from drive a: DOS area: sector not found
(A)bort, (I)gnore, (R)etry, (F)ail?
whenI press Abort
it prompts with:
out of memory error
It is significant that it actually have not tried to communicate with floppy 
which normally works under Linux. 
Do you have any idea how I can solve this problem.?

Thanks,

Vedran Vucic
