        @kiokoman 👍

        That was the first 'DOS' with support for those whopping big drive **, later to be known as a hard drive .... Folders or subdirectories also dates from that moment.
        The DOS that makes the computer boot without a floppy. That was yaw dropping technology.

        edit : ** something close to 20 mega bytes, but there were always bad sector right from the beginning. remember : the 3.5 inch 1,44 Mbytes floppies didn't exist back then. 5.25 floppies were single sided (?) - or something like 180 Kbytes.
        I do recall also :

        debug
        

        and then

        g c800:0
        

        to do an initial low level C drive format.

        and I just found out that we don't have 'debug' any more .... ;)

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??
