: The answer to your read MS-DOS problem depends on the kind of drives you

There is a commercial package called Uniform -- been around for years,
should still be in business. If you can't find it, ask and I'll look
up the manual. Be sure that you don't pick up a second-hand copy for a
different Kaypro, e.g., K10, as there are different versions of
Uniform for them.
