Hi Tom,
below some answers to your questions and details of further tests I've
done with 1.440MB floppy instead of 720kB floppy in the 3 followings
combinations: FD in VB, MD-DOS in VB, FD in QEMU.
What I notice is that, after the last "A:>dir" command in the 3 sessions
shown below, the numb
Hi Tom,

First of all I've created in Linux 2 identical

Hi Jim,
let me first say that I'm using FreeDOS in VirtualBox. I've made a fresh
new install of FreeDOS and OW from the FreeDOS distribution CD as suggested.

You should also have a file named the same as your program, but ending
with an ERR extension. That will have a complete copy of the
OpenWatcom compiler error or errors. Can you share that ERR file here?

I'm new in this mailing list so I apologize if I'm not using it in the
