Hello Arkady, > Eric offers:
- memcpy(bs->>OemName, "FreeDOS ", 8); + memcpy(bs->>OemName, "FRDOS4.1", 8); > Otherwise, Win9x/.. will sometimes ignore boot sector BPB (yuck!). > Value must be 5 uppercase letters, a digit (4 or 5), a dot, then a digit. > Is there any objection against this? if all your mails would be like that, we could become friends: mentions bug reason, provides a fix, and changes one line only. my objection is, that we mimic dos 5.x (or better), and that it doesn't hurt to include the reason for change. so I offer memcpy(bs->OemName, "FRDOS5.1", 8); /* Win9x seems to require 5 uppercase letters, digit(4 or 5) dot digit */ tom ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by BEA Weblogic Workshop FREE Java Enterprise J2EE developer tools!
