Didn't see this one pop up in any FAQs, so I thought I'd pass it along
here.

I just installed the a fresh copy of DJGPP v2.01 today, was attempting to
verify its function with a simple, hello-worldesque program.  Worked
fine on my system under both Win95 and NT.  Yet booting straight onto an
MS-DOS 6.22 floppy, with binary and CWSDPMI.EXE in place (no drivers of
any kind loaded in DOS), I saw the following:

A:\> myfile.exe
OMPT=: cannot open

A:\>

The system is an average P5-120.  For grins, I booted the same floppy
on an older Dell 486/20.  On that machine, the program executed perfectly.

Anyone seen this before?  Any ideas?  Thanks, and take care!

Cheers,
