I have noted some problems with the utilities 'df' - disk free space, and 'du' - disk used space, in the recently posted Picnix, ver 2. My system is an AT&T PC-6300 having dual floppies (drives a: and b:) and external hard disk (drive c:). I am currently running DOS 2.11. The problems I am having are as follows: df - works fine if I request for drive a: or c: or if either is the default drive. When I try to request for drive b: I get the following messages: ******************************************** * Illegal Interrupt No. 0Bh at 22A2:1617 * ******************************************** =: invalid drive specifier: b: du - works fine if I specify any drive name, even b:. The built in help indicates "If no names are specified on the command line, the size of the current directory is given." However, when I type 'du<cr>' I get ' 0 0.0K .' as the response. This is obviously in error and does not appear to be consistent with the help. Dave Beyerl ihnp4!ihlpl!db21
