I'm guessing that the diskettes are something you had from the time when
you were halfway through switching over to the 29160.

Check the diskettes and make sure you have no residual references to F: in
LIBPATH or elsewhere. That's the most likely cause.

Unlikely. The drive is not allowing write access for some reason.
