Is this a setup that Dani506 should support? I suspect the answer might
be yes, since the RAID functions should be hidden at the hardware level.

I'd have to guess that OS2DASD is missing a limit check. Trap 0 is divide
by 0 which is not usually what it means. It also triggers when the
quotient will not fit in the result register.
I'll look at this later and see if the reason for the defect is obvious.

Fear is the mind killer. As Ray notes, one needs to be careful with all
power tools. Asking questions before pressing keys is often a good
approach.
Much of what dfsee does is display-only. You are doing nothing more than
reading a book and that's unlikely to kill you. Also, there is F1 key
help for all the menus items. I'm sure you understand the English
language well enough to avoid commands that state they are going to delete
or fix something.

You will need to spend some time with dfsee before you can make an
informed decision about this.
