Well, seems that booting FreeDOS from a extended partition is impossible or at least very har, so I have make a primary partition of 1GB on my secondary disk. It's called "hdb2" by Linux.
Know the problem is that when I try to install FreeDOS, xfdisk says that my new partition is hidden. I don't know what this means. Also it has not drive letter. Anyway, I have tried to install the OS, because the FreeDOS installation disk finds 3 HD, and as I have 3 FAT partitions, I have thought that the third one must be the one in which I want to install FreeDOS (despite of the letters soon by xfdisk said that my partition isn't one of those 3). Voi·là, E: partition was the new created one, and FreeDOS has been installed successfully. But when I've tried to boot on it, after the screen to select the FreeDOS mode, several errors appears, saying that the system can't find command.com and autoexec.bat. Both files are in the root of the partition. I don't understand this, does anybody know how to fix this?
