SYMPTOMS
Some Tandy 1000TX 286 computers have a 3.5-inch floppy disk drive that
can be configured as a 360K drive. If the drive has been reconfigured,
the MS-DOS 6.x OEM 720K Disk 1 will not start (boot) the computer.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem:
• Modify or create the CONFIG.SYS file on Disk 1, and add the
following line:
DRIVPARM=/d:0 /f:2
• Boot the system using this disk.
Setup should now run normally.
