Hi all,
as per Eric's suggestion I changed the subject (as I didn't get any
reply :(( ). Please Help, I had to remove FreeDOS from my first willing
user. I would like to put it back
-----------------------
I just removed FreeDOS from my first real user. I believe that this is a
Kernel BUG. Let me describe the problem
Alain, can you switch software components one-by-one?
( MSDOS --> FREEDOS )
Probably no-one can reproduce the bug, so we need that one machine which
shows the bug.
the 16bit program itself erases the disks before writing a backup to disk?
FreeCOM for example works OK under MSDOS if specifying a full commandline.
SHELL=A:\COMMAND.COM A:\ /P
FreeSpace is calculated with _dos_getdiskfreespace
after deleting I tried both BIOS diskreset (Int13 AX=0, Dx=0) and DOS
disk reset (Int21 AX=0d00h)
The problem happens 90% of the time in the user case. It is difficult to
reproduce, it happened once in my test machine but no more.
which means it also is difficult for any other ppl to reproduce.
PLEASE HELP. It is very frustating to remove FreeDOS after 2 weeks of
Need to be sure this is only because of the kernel.
Can the program itself even be started using a SHELL line, and so ruling
out any command shell?
shell=c:\myprog\16bitprg.exe
