Re: [Freedos-user] FDNPKG v0.99.3

Hi Mateusz, Just wanted to give and update - Your FDNPKG is not the issue. After checking every aspect of the installation process, changing my CDROM drive and changing BIOS settings, I discovered the following about my HP Elite 8000 Desktop PC. 1) BIOS Set in IDE emulation - NO issues with

Re: [Freedos-user] FDNPKG v0.99.3

I am getting a (-15) error on almost every package in the NLS extraction and the actual binaries. I eventually extracted the "boot.img" and copied the new fdnpkg files to it and the extracted the "all_cd" files to a directory on my hard drive and adjusted the FDNPKG.CFG file. It works fine this

Re: [Freedos-user] FDNPKG v0.99.3

Thanks for the more detailed report. Can you confirm please that you get all the "-15" errors using FNDPKG v0.99.3, and not any earlier version? To know the exact version you are using, simply run FDNPKG without any arguments. It will print its version somewhere at the top of the screen. -15

Re: [Freedos-user] FDNPKG v0.99.3

Hey Mateusz, I usually start my clean install from the all_cd.iso with FDNPKG install kernel, but since you announced the update to FDNPKG, I tried to install FDNPKG first. After loading the db to temp it begins the install but then produces several (-15) errors in the DOC, NLS and BIN directory

Re: [Freedos-user] FDNPKG v0.99.3

Okay, I'm not sure I understand the wholeness of your situation, but is it right to sum it up like this? "you had troubles because of using a severly outdated FDNPKG v0.96 that was embedded inside the boot.img portion of all_cd.iso" ? If that's correct, then the problem should be gone by now,

Re: [Freedos-user] FDNPKG v0.99.3

Been having trouble - did you update the boot.img my fdnpkg is all out of whack. On Tue, Nov 24, 2015 at 11:44 AM, Mateusz Viste wrote: > On 24/11/2015 16:32, Dale E Sterner wrote: > > Is there an Ibiblio link? > > As usual, yes :) > > >

[Freedos-user] FDNPKG v0.99.3

Hi all, I released FDNPKG v0.99.3 today. This is a purely bugfix release, I'd highly recommend upgrading any older version. FDNPKG v0.99.3 [23 Nov 2015] - [fix] files zipped uncompressed are extracted correctly (v0.99.2 regress), - [fix] closing file descriptors on install failure (no risk of
