Robert,

   Thanks for your comments but I don't think the problem is the disks.
I've also tried Tektronix 8160 disks, Osborne 1 and Osborne Executive
disks, Morrow disks and some others and I get the same results with all of
them. The only disks that I've ever been able to archive are MS-DOS disks!
