Everything works fine until dsave...
first I got a plain Error #247
Just trying to act like I knew what I was doing,
I typed CHD /D0 (changed from /DD) and retried...
dsave now starts cranking out error messages:
copy: can't open /D0/****.* - Error #247
(for every file on the source)

I'm thinking you have some other module in memory
that I don't...?
