I'm still using FreeDOS 0.84 (I know it's quite old) with some
DELL computers. In DELL PC Bios, some offer pure SATA or combined
SATA/IDE. If pure SATA is enabled, FreeDOS 0.84 is unable to "see"
those hard disks.
Is this changed in the newest version of FreeDOS? I've seen no
mention in homepage, nothing in Wiki. When I made a search in home
page, that gives http://www.freedos.org/software/?prog=gcdrom
but I have no idea what that means.
