Well, yes, though while I am German, I am living in the country side of
Los Angeles, but had left early for some community event around 8am... ;-)

Dennis - Thank you for all the info! I installed Linux Mint via USB on that
machine, I just want to be sure FD will "see" the ports, so to speak, but
the FD page sez it's so, so it must be! I found the code for EP on

WordPerfect, my favorite word processor, which I now miss dearly.

Thank you! It's this little jobbie:

Hi! MKEYB has a few built-in maps, so you need no separate

Hi Vincent! I would say as long as it has at least a
few megabytes of RAM and at least a 386 CPU, FreeDOS
should run on any PC ;-) Which specific parts are you

USB installer.
