Not really.

So we have heard.

Use something other than the braindead cmd.exe which runs out of resources
at the slightest provocation.
You might want to look at your script logic too. It looks a bit sick to
me. I think you really want this to be:
for %%f in (F G) do ( echo %%f: BASEDEV ---- & find /i "basedev"
<%%f:\config.sys ) | find /v /i "rem " | sort
If you read the command reference carefully, you will notice that for only
allows a single command thus the parens.
I changed the find to specify the drive letter because I assume you want
to scan multiple config.sys files rather than just the one that happens to
be in the current directory.

The real explanation is that cmd.exe is braindead.
>[H:\cmd]help sys1092
>SYS1092: The handle could not be duplicated during a pipe operation.

The real explanation is that cmd.exe is braindead.
The corrected script runs just fine under 4os2. Your original also runs
without errors if run from the root, but the results are not what I think
you want.
