I get question from user. Please, answer directly to him (note: @ in address replaced by space):
______________O\_/_________________________________\_/O______________ From: "Burrell Jim (ext)" <Jim.Burrell SiemensVDO.com> Subject: Installing FreeDOS
I recently bought a tablet PC. It has no disk drives of any kind and no OS. I found that if I plug a Sandisk FlashCard into the pcmcia slot, it will recognize the card. I think if I can somehow install freedos on the card it will boot from it. How can I put the card in another PC, install freedos, make the flash card bootable, and then put the card in the tablet PC? I have a 4MB and a 20MB flash card. _____________________________________________________________________ O/~\ /~\O

'format' (IIRC) the flash card like a drive so it could be booted from. One could copy the necessary files to it. Not having done it before, I am not sure if it would work but it is a start. There are USB adapters that can read flash cards. This could be used with a desktop computer with USB supported.
