Excuse me. There's a MAJOR difference between an MS-DOS 3.3 question of

Let's not play semantical games, please.
MS-DOS 3.3 has a limit of 512 entries in the root
directory. I have a
need to put more than this.
Hey! Weren't you one of the people complaining that cctalk isn't
a PC support forum? If you aren't able to run the Linux mkdosfs
command yourself, I can
send you a ZIP file containing an otherwise empty floppy image
created as described above, and you can use rawrite.exe or equivalent
to write it onto a real floppy disk.
Thanks for the offer, but I'd need to format a hard drive thusly. This is
a decent solution if I can't come up with anything else.
Thanks!
