Hi Jeremy, glad to have you back :) :)
I thought DOS (at least older versions) did not print free space unless
at least one file was displayed. This may have changed (or my memory is

The A: for the USB stick sounds right, but I can't figure how you're

Hi Michael:
I happen to have an "off-brand" 128MB USB stick. I used FORMAT
0.91V and the SYS and 32-bit kernel from fdos.org/kernel
(Development). I booted from a floppy disk and did a "format d:"
and "sys d:" to the USB stick. My primary 500MByte DOS partition
showed up as C: and my extended
