How about a format program which writes a bootsector program more user-friendly than the current one. I, for one, really _hate_ having to reboot just because I accidentally booted with an OS/2 formatted floppy in the drive. Even MS-DOS allows you to remove the disk and retry the boot...and its been that way for ages. Why must OS/2 users have to put up with such user-hostile behavior? If you don't know what I am referring to, try it, and see what I mean. ---------------------------------------___--------------------------------- | Al Dhir /___\ Internet Access Group, Inc | | Internet: adhir@betelgeuse.iagi.com (o o) 301-847-0228 Fax:301-847-0229 | -----------------------------------ooO-(_)-Ooo-----------------------------
