FUD problem solved?



Hello,

Under DOSMasyter, I use FUD to manage my files.
But I often get a "Not a DOS3.3 disk" even if they are read under Dos3.3!

So I had a look at the VTOC sector checking for the "Dos version"byte. It 
was Ok. They I had a look at the first "unused byte": on my disk it valued 
160, and on the DOS3.3 system disk it was 4.

So I changed this first byte and FUD accepted my disk!

Why is this "unused byte" used?

I will add this feature into my "RAWC" utility as a "DOS3.3 compatibility" 
byte...

Guillaume.
