Hi,

I have a DOS application which says there isn't room to write a file. I 
get an "Insufficient disk space on destination drive" message.  In fact 
there is plenty --too much-- room.  I suspect it's making a DOS call to 
see what free space is available, probably getting an answer which it 
translates to a negative number; and then won't write out the file.

I had this issue years ago when I ran this DOS application program in 
OS/2.  Now it's here in DOSEmu/Linux.  Anyone know how to tell the 
DOSEmu session it has only X amount of space; where X is some number DOS 
can deal with?

Thanks!
