Hi, Thanks for the report.
This issue was also reported on the bug tracker. However, I think it was discovered very soon after the 1.3RC3 CD release during the final stages of the Floppy Only version. This caused updates to the logic for both the CD/USB installer and the Floppy Only version. When released, 1.3-RC4 should not exhibit the issue. https://sourceforge.net/p/freedos/bugs/286/ <https://sourceforge.net/p/freedos/bugs/286/> Thanks again, Jerome > On Oct 29, 2020, at 10:35 PM, Paul Dufresne via Freedos-devel > <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi!
