From: stu@stu.UUCP (stu) Newsgroups: comp.sys.ibm.pc Subject: Reading DOS4.0 disks on DOS2.1 Keywords: DOS floppy Message-ID: <1291@stu.UUCP> Date: 12 Jul 89 18:19:38 GMT Distribution: usa Lines: 10 I am trying to transfer files from my DOS 4.0 system to my DOS 2.1 system. The 2.1 system can't read the floppy as formatted on the 4.0 system. Does anyone know how to make a 2.1 compatible floppy on a 4.0 system? If I format a floppy on 2.1, I can read it into 4.0 but if I try to write on the 2.1 floppy with the 4.0 system, it corrupts the floppy. -- Stuart Brown {ihnp4,allegra}!clyde!sdl!stu
