I'm looking for 720k floppy images, Odin is on a 1440k image.

Although doable, I don't have anything 720K to play with. It may be possible to stuff ODIN on a 720K disk without even removing anything. Not sure.

Not only it's possible, but I've just done it! Please find its disk image at http://linux.tu-varna.acad.bg/~lig/freedos/ODIN.720


It's 100% identical to Steve's original ODIN, but all that can be packed is packed with UPX. There are still 8 KB free on the diskette. And what's most important, everything was done using 100% FreeDOS software!!! The kernel I did it under was our kernel. The FORMAT I used to format the diskette was our FORMAT (so it really works for 720 KB floppies ;-) The CHKDSK I used to check the disk was our CHKDSK. The SYS I used to make it boottable was our SYS. And the boot sector loaded when I tested how it boots and works was our boot sector. So, spread and enjoy your 720K ODIN! ;-)
