Excuse me for being stubborn, but since I got NO responses to this, I
thought I would try again.
=======================================================================

>I have a very simple, one-line file ("This is a test. \folio") and when I run
>it from my harddisk (\emtex\texinput) I get the following screen output --
>note the [1].  When I change drives to d: (a ramdrive) the result is slightly
>different -- note the [2].  If that weren't bad enough, the first page of the
>document in BOTH cases winds up being page 2 (not 1).  These problems started
>with my use of the beta-test version (tx386b8.zip).
>===================================================
>command:
>c:
>tex386 test

>Response:
>This is emTeX (tex386), Version 3.141 [3c-beta8] (no format preloaded)
>**test
>(test.tex [1] )
>Output written on test.dvi (1 page, 256 bytes).
>Transcript written on test.log.
>==================================================
>command:
>d:
>tex386 c:test

>Response:
>This is emTeX (tex386), Version 3.141 [3c-beta8] (no format preloaded)
>**c:test
>(c:test.tex [2] )
>Output written on test.dvi (1 page, 256 bytes).
>Transcript written on test.log.
>===================================================
>Any ideas on restoring my first page to unity (other than forcing it by
>putting in \pageno=1 in all of my documents) would be appreciated.
>The second question is why the screen output is different for the two cases
>above.  Thanks.
