Hear me > out. :) 1) the FreeDOS project is primarily about MSDOS compatibility; only then comes GPL. and MSDOS compatibility is all about BINARY compatibility. 2) the prject is *far* from self compiling by some BUILDALL.BAT. just install FreeDOS 1.3 yourslf and try to rebuild all binaries. Good luck;) Please measure and report the time it took you just to create BASE; not to mention JEMM386 and it's many friends. 3) I have no idea how you bootstrap this "compile all freedos" effort without shipping compiler/assembler/make binaries.
