Actually, it would probably be more of a pain for who would build the actual release than the installer. Even though this installer is batch file based, it is very flexible. (Not super fast though). With it’s new structure, it wouldn’t be hard for it to handle multi-floppies. But, building that release would be a little painful. > >> I could build it into the installer, but if only 0.01% would want it.

But, since the neither v1.0 or v1.1 ship with a multi-floppy install download I don’t really see a need for it. > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > _______________________________________________ > Freedos-devel mailing list > Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
