Hi there,

I recently came across a problem with the dosdir(1) in 
V1.5 of Minix (patches applied from the net 1.3 -> 1.5)

If I run V1.5 dosdir(1):

# dosdir -l c        (directory of C:\ desired)
reserved != 1
cluster size too big
Can't handle disk

So I go back to the V1.3 dosdir(1) and it works fine!!
Is this a bogus messsage from V1.5?  What is that 
"reserved" message?  I checked the code, but couldn't
make heads or tails of it.

Thanks for any hints!
