You can do this anyway by using an auxiliary bootloader, e.g. Syslinux or Grub. The idea is that you load the basic DOS into a ramdisk from the bootloader (e.g. via memdisk) and then you can load your TSR. What *might* be useful could be a way to have some way for the FreeDOS kernel to natively boot from a ramdisk in high memory, or at least have a way to not have the ramdisk become drive A or C. -hpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Freedos-kernel mailing list Freedos-kernel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-kernel
