This is a quick request for help under Ms-dos on a z100 (version 2.1x)
I need to know if it is possible to change the default fat length from
12 bits to 16bits.  Under 3.1 this happens automatically if you have
more than 4086 clusters but it doesn't seem to work the same way under
v2.1.  I need this because I inherited a 32mb drive and I sure hate to
use 16 sector clusters (minimum file size of 8k!!! yuk). I think this
may have been posted before but I missed it.

Thanks for any help
