I keep meaning to test Rufus <https://rufus.ie/en/> to see if it will
successfully create a bootable USB flash drive based on the FreeDOS

Has anyone here used Rufus to create a bootable USB flash drive from
the LiveCD image?
I think users shouldn't depend on software that's exclusively designed
to work on Windows (Rufus).
I have used the LiteUSB image to create a bootable flashdrive with dd in
the past and it's been quite useful.
I suggest not to remove it, or at least keep the FullUSB or some USB image.

Although the next major version of FDIMPLES will most likely support online
repositories, it is being written %100 in assembly and not coming soon. Even
once the new version of FDIMPLES is ready, general networking support under
FreeDOS is very limited. This leaves us with providing additional packages on
the release media for the near future.
Nice! That will be very useful, as the user won't depend on removable
media to remove/update/install new software.
