If I were to have known that it wasn't possible, then it would have been a
lot more difficult.
XP dropped support of formatting 720K from the desktop, and from the
command line they dropped /F:720, and dropped /F:2. But they did NOT
eliminate:
FORMAT A: /T:80 /N:9
Darn you, Fred!
Now I'll have to dig out that "advance" copy of Win2003 they sent me
and install it on something, just to see. I had noticed that the /F:720
option was gone, but I have a DOS box that's on a lot more than the
Windows box, so I never pursued it. :)
