Dear Jim Hall and all contributors, FreeDOS users- Congratulations, firstly, on getting on SourceForge's Top Projects list this month. I think the accolade is long-overdue. I've finally signed up here partly to thank you for your base that I have used on a Toshiba 430CDS Satellite Pro (48MB, P1, 120MHz, SB16 - previously Win95), and, after plundering various online DOS software repositories for the top-rated and award-winning educational games - have a fabulous learning centre for my early Primary-school children. I've configured it to boot straight into Ronald Blankendaal's "Access" 5.02 menu system+cd-player, which I have found to be the best DOS GUI for my young audience (http://members.quicknet.nl/blankendaalr/). FreeDOS, for this dated hardware, to me illustrates PERFECTLY the values of Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. I feel too that a future "FreeDos 4 Kids" -type distribution would provide a valuable educational tool - on so many levels - but I regret that I have no expertise in DOS or programming. Now I need some educating, please, regarding your latest updates. From your last base release (FreeDOS 1.0 baseCD) - How do I implement the latest kernel (e.g., ke2040_386f32.zip) and installation scripts (e.g., inst401s) into the ISO (or overwrite onto the existing install on HD or floppy)? Could you, or another FreeDos user more savvy than I - release a non-official ISO with the latest updates already implemented?
