I do tend to ignore him - except when he posts non-answers to my question!

Anyways, I've made hard drive images for XGS, and I have a bootable 6.0.1
image.  The reason I wanted a complete version is because mine won't read
DOS 3.3 images.  It says I need to install the DOS 3.3 FST.  I've looked in
the FST directory on my 6.0.1 disk, and all I have there is "PRO.FST" and
"CHAR.FST".  

I'm pretty rusty on //gs software.  I used to have one a few years ago, but
never had any //gs software for it, I just used it as a fast //e.  I've got
*loads* of //e stuff, and it all seems to work OK on the various emulators
(Applewin, App2pc 2.52).  I really hope XGS gets finished, even though it's
pretty useable right now.  

Thanks for the "reasonable" reply.   :-)
