Jr. Rogerson) Newsgroups: comp.unix.microport Subject: Dos access Keywords: Dosdir, doscp Message-ID: <9385@phoenix.Princeton.EDU> Date: 12 Jul 89 14:40:09 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: Princeton University, NJ Lines: 11 I have just installed System V/AT version 2.2L on an 8Mhz AT clone. From the limited time that I've had to test things, I've only run accross the following problem. Drive c: on my system is the DOS partition on the hard disk. If I type "dosdir C:", I get a directory listing of the root directory of the DOS partition. If I type "dosdir C:subdir", where subdir is any subdirectory name, I receive an error message saying "Bad FAT" followed by some 4 digit number that changes with the subdirectory name. Similarly, if I type "doscp C:filename filename", I receive the Bad FAT notice. I would be most grateful for instruction on what I am doing wrong. Thank you. Jack Rogerson
