I was thinking of having a package that attempts to download the driver and install it. This isn't included yet, though. > Without permission from that company (which I tried getting) I'm not > delivering it with the freedos distro that I work on. It isn't distributed with mine either. If the user wants to use the CD-ROM after installation, they will currently have to manually add a CD-ROM driver. > I'll have a look at how you configured packet drivers etc, very curious :) > nice idea to allow ppl to update to daily kernel. Right now, it is up to the user to configure the packet driver, but the distribution comes with the crynwr packet driver collection and the postset.bat post installation setup batch file asks the user if they want to edit wattcp.cfg and if they want to shell to the directory containing the packet drivers. If anyone has a better idea, please let me know. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
