Hi Eric Sorry for the delay but I had to wait until last nite to upload lbacache-2008apr07.zip and a modded fdconfig.sys to the system in question (it's 200km away) and then wait for someone to unzip & test. Just as you thought it now boots OK.
If I get a chance this weekend I will set up a system from scratch using the standard FreeDOS 1.0 CD (fdfullcd.iso) and then check out Mateusz Vistes FDUPDATE.
