SUMMARY
=======
The MS-DOS 6.0 and 6.2 original equipment manufacturer (OEM) boot-sector
identification tag is "MSDOS5.0," the same as for MS-DOS 5.0.
MS-DOS 6.0 and 6.2 use the same boot-sector identification tag as MS-DOS 5.0 to
maintain compatibility with some third-party programs.
When you use the VER command or interrupt 21h function 3306h (Get MS-DOS Version)
to check the version, MS-DOS reports the correct verison number.
Additional query words: 6.22 5.00 5.00a 6.00 6.20 OEM ID
