Good day, all:

I have another FreeDOS problem with NTFS4DOS.  This one DOES
NOT affect MS-DOS (I think it's called 7.1...version from Windows98SE).

The problem is a divide error.  Without himem.exe loaded, I get
Divide error
Divide error
..... (lots of these, very quickly, followed by a repeating garbage pattern
until I reboot using the same procedure as below)

With himem.exe loaded:

A:>a:\datapol\ntfs4dos
(Identifies my two NTFS drives...assigning the first E:, the second F:)

A:>dir e:
Volume in drive E is PRESARIO
DIR of E:\
     autoexec.bat         0        10-15-04      7:38P
     config.sys              0         [...]
     (and six directories)
     2 file(s)     0  bytes
     6 dir(s)
Divide error, stack:
    FB41 19A8 3246 0000 15B5 38C8 6AE5 19A8 81DB 0000 0000 0000 38A4

Hangs until  I reboot.

Windows dir command shows 69,679,292,416 bytes free.

MS-DOS shows
     2 file(s)     0 bytes
     6 dir(s)
A:>

I have asked Datapol, but what's going on here?

Thanks in advance for your help.  I continue to believe that NTFS4DOS
will be a very valuable tool for FreeDOS users, and I think getting it
working is important.

Development kernel (1.1.35w), new command.com, new himem.exe.

This was particularly badly behaved when himem.exe was not loaded
(because I copied the trivial MS-DOS config.sys file and forgot to
change himem.sys to himem.exe!  :-))
