Hi Flo:

Thanks.  This "traditional" technique requires reinstalling
Windows.  You can do it without reinstalling Windows at all
by shrinking the WindowsXP NTFS partition in place.  I
wrote up a detailed procedure for this which is on
fdos.org somewhere or you can look at www.k1ea.com/hints
(Dual-boot "Real" DOS on Windows XP).  This is nice
because I can take a brand new WindowsXP computer and
install FreeDOS on it in under 20 minutes without
affecting the WindowsXP installation at all.

If I understand this technique correctly, I would
have to a complete reinstall of WindowsXP to use it.

The procedure as written is a bit MSDOS centric.  Please
let me know if you have any comments or suggestions.
