What about Commodore machines - did they support
directories at all?
W/r/t the 8 bits, it depended on the disk drive you attached it to. None
of the 5.25" drives did. The 1581 supported "partitions" which with a bit
of software help could be coerced into looking like subdirectories. The
computers themselves, since they have no DOS per se, don't care.
