  (This probably belongs in a FAQ list...)

  Does anyone know why msdos sometimes doesn't take you seriously
when prompted with 'Abort, Retry, Fail?' on read-errors?  Often
when I select abort or fail the dos just goes ahead and retry's
anyway.  I haven't noticed any pattern to discern why it does this.
