It's a Coco formatted disk, as the DIR 0 shows a good dir.

As I noted on the original email:
"fdrawcmd.sys loaded on XP"

OK, that is good information.  I'm back from the show, but hopefully I 
can share this information.  If someone has a suitably modded ROM image, 
I can see about sharing with him.
He has done this successfully on another machine, so he knows it is 
possible.  I can also see if he can copy the .rom from that other machine.
