[Repeated 1/2 dozen times]

Perhaps I should repost my question regarding DCOM (the N* OS means
of accessing the disk) 1/2 dozen times!

As for "transferring OS" - perhaps if YOU had READ that I was interested
in transferring CP/M - and was asking about N* disk system calls....
[Shall I repeat that 1/2 dozen times]

Do you have any clairification on my original questions regarding the
N* DCOM call when used with double density?

Don't bother - I already know your answers(s) - and It doesn't look like
meaningful discussion will be forthcoming.

Cheers,
Dave
