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!
Joe Henley
