The user might have run the installer in advanced mode, where they have more control. Or they could be installing FreeDOS in a virtual machine (in which case, it's isolated from the operating system). Both would result in not overwriting your primary OS. Or they could intend to overwrite everything (re-install the system) but that's already mentioned as "If this is not what you intend.." _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
