I have had considerable trouble getting emm386 to work with D845PEBT2 motherboards and other Intel motherboards. A lot of processor dumps. Is emm386 being debugged for Freedos 1.1? How about Bolitare, half the time I can't get it to work. Same thing with Minesweeper.
Freedos defrag seems slow and the side effects which should be committed to disk don't seem to be committed, at least compared with the Symantec product that was bundled with MS-DOS 6.22. How about a free scandisk replacement? Supposedly that isn't needed, though it is nice to be able to map bad sectors and see a graphical representation of where they are. Is there a wiki listing dos programs that don't work with freedos? For starters: Ultima VII doesn't work. Why doesn't Ultima VII work in freedos? Why doesn't Netware 4.11 installer work in freedos? Netware isn't the only way to go, apparently dhcp can hand out different information based on the OS of the system that is requesting a lease. So theoretically, setting up private IP networks should be a cinch. This said, Microsoft client 3.0 is way out of date and unmaintained. Is there a free alternative to it? Is this a Freedos 2.0 item? What bugs are being worked on? How many packages need to be updated for the 1.1 release? Will there be a new fancier installer? Will gem be equipped with an optional graphical package manager? A periodic newsletter, say once a month, would be nice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
