Hi Don,

I'm getting *undeliverable* messages back from your personal e-mail 
address. I sent you a personal copy of my message that went out 26 
minutes after Davey's.
With the later information you just provided, that ddloader.bin isn't 
intended to be dissected - it's an actual binary device driver that 
should be an entry in the config.sys on the floppy/image!
