Hi all!
Just a quick note to let everyone know about some changes to the FreeDOS
website.
I've been working on improving the FreeDOS website, and tonight I started
making the first user-visible changes. Up until now, the changes have been
pretty minor, and probably invisible to most folks (some l

that's at ibiblio's end (load balancer) or your end (Firefox) I'm not
sure.

Unlikely to be a Linux issue, as I run Linux on my laptop and didn't have
access issues.
I wonder if this is a home network problem, since the issue was "Every
computer in the house (non networked) gives the .. error." I'd take a
laptop to a coffeeshop and test if you can access ibiblio from there.

If I recall correctly, the willybilly 1.0.7a help pages are an

I don't know about the different version number formats, though.

I had a ComputeStick at my previous job; we bought it to experiment with
for campus computer labs. That device is weirdly locked down. I didn't get
a chance to boot FreeDOS on it, but even booting a Linux distribution was a

If I understand your question, you want a DOS command to do arithmetic. You
should look up Foxcalc. However, I can't remember if it also supports DOS

Just tried out the new installer using QEMU on Linux, and it works!
For those curious, my command line:

I downloaded the 32mb Slim USB (FDI-SLIM.img) and installed it using
QEMU under Linux. This looks great! I love the updated look with the
plain blue background. This matches the blue background used in the

That's not a good sign. SourceForge did some planned maintenance yesterday
about noon, and things didn't go as planned. So the FreeDOS Wiki, bug
tracker, and Subversion repo are currently offline because they are hosted
at SourceForge.
The www website is hosted elsewhere so is unaffected.

The links to SF were broken with a message from SourceForge. But I just

I think what you are proposing is a program that only displays the radar

Hi everyone!
FreeDOS will turn 23 years old this year, on June 29. While there's
nothing special about "23," I thought it would be interesting to
celebrate this year's anniversary by having a bunch of us share a
story about why we use FreeDOS.
So I started a Blog Challenge on the FreeDOS Blog:
ht
Beta 1 through Beta 9 R 1 had codenames. The short version is I thought
codenames were a cute idea, better than just a number, so gave the Beta 1 a
codename. But eventually they ran their course and we stopped giving names
to the releases.
You can see the codenames listed here:

Unfortunately, there's nothing I can do on my end as list admin to fix
this for you. Each subscriber has to revalidate on their own.

Yes, I thought this happened back in June. At least, I recall posting a
Congrats message to PC/MOS386 via Twitter around that time, but I'm stumped
to find the tweet now.
Regardless, a great achievement for them. Congrats!

The FreeDOS website is working fine from here. I'm at a tech conference on

Freedos.org doesn't appear to have changed. It's simple as such things go.
