Disk Error 18 (usually expressed in hex as &12) is Disk Write
Protected. Try un-protecting the disk. With 5.25" disks remove any
tab over the write protect slot near the top of the disk. With
3.5" disks ensure the little slider covers the hole in the corner.
 
Oh, and by the way. DFS 1.20 has timing problems with 3.5" disks.
You should use either 0.90 (which is a bit buggy) or 1.21
(available from me and various other people).
