Oh god, you're probably right.

Urgh. What about just finding a rawrite that understand vfat and
going with vfat in all cases rather than msdos disks ?
Does such a thing exist? Someone pointed me to a MS Win rawrite but
I'd rather stay with straight DOS (or maybe both) if possible.
I guess we could name the files base1440.1, base1440.2, ... or else
bse14-XX.bin. But, oh, ick, I'd rather get away from 8.3 constraints
if it's humanly possible.
