I thought that under NS2.1, 720K DOS disks could be read.  I also thought  
that this was true for NS3.0.  However, whenever I insert a 720K DOS disk  
into my NeXT running NS3.0, I get the following messages on my Console:

DOS File System: Initialized

sh: 26: not found
sh: 3F^Ef^EF@: not found

This is for _any_ 720K DOS disk.  I do not have the ability to test 1.44M  
DOS disks because the only PC I have around here is my old laptop, hence  
the 720K disks...

Anyone know what is going on?
