I don't know how large you can manage to make RAD:, but whenever you change the size of RAD: while an old one exists (whether mounted yet or not) you will get the "Not a DOS disk" error. You can either do a RemRAD and reboot, and it will recreate it from scratch, or you can simply mount the new sized one and format it. (It's fun to watch RAD: format... it FLIES.) Deven -- Deven T.
