While fdupdate doesn't work, I am retrieving a file off of an ftp server using wget. I don't think wget is crashing. It is running awfully slow though, could be because I don't have himem loaded. One thing I'm wondering about, does freedos work when serial ports are overlapped? The standard thing to do for 4 serial ports is to do com1 and com3 on irq 4 with com2 and com4 on irq 3. More than 2 near fnodes, does that have something to do with overlapping serial ports? Please note that I've tried dos memtest and it isn't showing any memory errors. MS DOS 6.22 has a tool that graphically shows a representation of memory, I think it was called msd. Is there an equivalent for freedos? My isa nic is a DE220PT in non pnp mode, has anyone had problems using these under freedos? Please note that ssh2dos works. Every network application except for fdupdate seems to work okay. What is an fnode? What does a message that more than 2 near fnodes are opened mean? Please someone, try fdupdate v0.54 on a real 486 with 30 pin memory, maybe you'll run into the same problem that I am having. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
