Most Thinkpads have an "inverted floppy drive change line"
(why IBM did it this way, I don't know). To fix it, add:
---------------
floppy=thinkpad
---------------
to the loadlin line in boot.bat (in your DOS directory)
Aaahhh, many thanks for that! I've already removed all remnants of dos
& windows though. I think I have some old boot floppies in the
basement; I'll go have a look.
