I'll try uploading a slightly improved version sometime soon, as the 
announcement has hit OSNEWS. People booting the CD then failing to get 
to the setup part from CD, will otherwise cause a huge amount of 
complaints. ELTORITO and SHSUCDHD/SHSUCDRD parts work, UIDE part not 
yet. In effect, booting from CD (or USB with ISO) works, booting from a 
setup diskette not yet. Detecting driveletters is 1 thing, verifying if 
there's a disk in the drive, with ISO9660 filesystem, with data, being 
FreeDOS install, is another.

The ODIN part (ready to run binaries) of the CD was reworked last night 
as well, but not sure which files are required besides binaries from 
packages.

List of additional files as found (\FREEDOS\SETUP\ODIN\)in FD1.0:
BOOTFIX
ADD
AUTOEXEC.BAT
CALLVER
CD2ISO86 (replaced by OMI, copy CD to ISO)
CDRCACHE (might add this as package)

DISK_SIM.CFG
DRVON
DU
EDIT.CFG (from Edit 0.7d?)
FDCONFIG.SYS
FIPS.DOC/EXE (partitioning tool)
FREETEST
GETLINE
INIADD
LFN2SFN
LOCALIZE
LOCATE
MD5SUM (update to Blair's 3.0final I guess)
METABOOT
META-ALL
MORESYS
OSCHECK
PART
PARTSIMP
PBATCH
PG
RERROR
RESTORRB
SPFDISK
SVTXT
TICKLE
WHICHFAT
XDEL
XFDISK
