I was unsuccessful in sending mail to Rusty, so I am replying to the
Net.  Can anyone give more information on this "bug".  I have an '83
Kaypro 10 and have never had problems with diskettes formatting, or
using them on my wife's Kaypro 4'83.

Thanks...cal.
PS.  I know Z80 assembler, have hacked my BIOS/BDOS, so don't spare
the details on this bug.
