Hi All,

Fixed a minor issue in Logger, that would cause the interface program to not 
find the device driver when it was loaded low. 

At present, the interface program just does a brute force memory scan to find 
the driver. There are safeguards in place to prevent false positives and some 
optimizations to help expedite the process. But yes, it is a slow crappy way to 
locate the driver. It is only doing it this way until I decide on what is the 
best and most compatible thing to hook with zero chance of a collision or 
failure to find. Needs more pondering. Under general use, you probably won’t 
even notice the delay. But, there would definitely be a large performance hit 
under heavy use of the interface program.

Anyhow, I whipped up a modified version of the Boot Image for the FreeDOS 1.3 
LiveCD and works with the interim build of the LiveCD. It was just a test. But, 
I figured I would share it to save you some work. You can fetch it from my 
server at https://fd.lod.bz/redist/system/ <https://fd.lod.bz/redist/system/> 
Then simply fire VirtualBox with the diskette and a LiveCD 1.3 (or later 
interim build) attached to check it out. Just make sure the VM is booting the 
floppy first. 

:-)

Jerome
