Hi Bob!
Have you tried issuing the "chx /dd/cmds" and "chd /dd" commands to get
control back?

Subject: [Coco] mess HD problem

Hi all,

does anyone here use MESS with two hard disk (VHD) images?

I'm seeing some odd behaviour here. This shows up in both the linux and
windows versions.

It seems that NitrOS9 forgets the current working directory and execution
directory. When that happens, nothing that I do will work; even typing
/DD/CMDS/<insert filename here> will not work, and gives error 216.

I'm not sure, but I *think* it's related to having two VHD images mounted.
everything appears to work fine with just one VHD. Is this a mess problem,
or NitrOS9? I'm using the latest version of NitrOS9.

My VHD images are identical in size, but not, of course, contents. Both are
~120MB.
