Hi:

   I got the L&P F83 and use it on my Sun 386i. I keep the following files in
disk d:

   f83.com
   kernel86.blk
   meta86.blk
   cpu8086.blk
   extend86.blk

when I fire the f83, and open the meta86.blk as following:

   D:f83
   OK open meta86.blk
   OK 1 load
       3
       .
       .
       .
      21
    FCB unavailable
    Abort, Fail?

What is the FCB? I also run the above procedure in the 286 clone computer, and
got the disk d: error message.

    I check the programs by using crck4.com and confirm that all the files are
right.

    Does someone can tell me how to solve the above problem?

    Thank in advance!
