Does anyone have a copy of MS-DOS 6.20 laying around?

I have a friend with an older computer that complains that it is
'missing operating system' when attempting to boot from the hard drive.
When I boot from a version 6.22 floppy, I can view the c and h drives
(it has been double spaced), but the versions are not the same.  The
system files on the hard drive are dated 09-30-93 6:20a.  I believe that
this is MS-DOS 6.20, and I think a simple sys command with the correct
version will fix the problem.

I am in Calgary.
