4DOS 6.02B   DOS 6.22
4DOS Revision B (131)   DOS Revision A
DOS is in HMA

 ML> do you see the initial FD copyright line before the WFC screen comes

Nope.  The BTM runs as far as the next line, gives me an "Access denied
G:\AE04F89B.000" and then ceases all activity until I press Ctrl-Break:

C:\Util\X00153A.EXE E 1 B,0,115200 R=4096 T=1024 F=8 | tee /a %ramd:\x00.log

Without "Install=C:\Dos\SHARE.EXE /f:4096 /l:25" in my config.sys file, the
above line runs with no problems...  ???

 ML> what SHARE.EXE are you using? one that came with the DOS yo uare
