Sorry guys, that I denied this topic, but this sounds somewhat strange to me, since I was able to successfully install FreeDOS 1.0, (the full Blair distribution), without a Internet connection at all. I admit that the post install script, starts complaining about a NIC and keeps on searching for a DHCP "handshake", but you can simply deny that. I even changed my 3COM Etherlink III ISA NIC for a Realtec based PCI NIC later and was able to set it up without a glitch, using Georg Potthast's Nicscan: http://www.georgpotthast.de/sioux/packet.htm Don't worry, just stay cool, since as far as I concern, FreeDOS/OpenGEM simply works great. My advice is, if the installer starts complaining, just ignore it. And no, I'm not one of the coders, just an ordinary (l)user ;-) -- |_|0|_| Marti T. van Lin |_|_|0| http://ml2mst.googlepages.com |0|0|0| http://osgeex.blogspot.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
