I formatted my Dataframe XP40 and then restored from my Diskfit smartset.
When I went to reboot, the system crashed (flickering screen).  I booted
up off of another floppy and found that my System file had grown about
twice its size (from ~850K to ~1800K).  I copied a fresh System to the disk
and all was OK (except that I had to put back all my fonts/DAs!).  Anyone
else hear of this wierd and undesireable behavior?  I haven't called
Dataframe tech support yet...  I am guessing that the routine to
"join" files larger than 800K hasn't quite been debugged!
