I have DOS 5 up on a machine or two and am in 
general pretty pleased. I just tried to do a
DOS FC (file compare) and got the message

"Extended error 2"

When I format a virgin 1.2mb floppy on one
machine I get Extended error 4 but it formats
find on the other machine.

Maybe I missed something but where are these
errors documented. I didn't see anything in
the DOS 5 book.

Thanks in advance... Don Rubin rubin@visual1.jhuapl.edu
