Thanks cordata2 and Mark - no I've tried repeated reboots while ironing
out the kinks in my re-install, chiefly to get my autoexec.bat working
nicely, and while the BIOS detects the USB flash drive on bootup, no
letter is automatically assigned to it (although I must test the ports
at the rear). USB mouse loads automatically from the same front panel,
however. I've used a FAT32 format with my FreeDOS1.1 install on the
internal SD card - it seemed to be something the automatic install
insisted on as I had problems with an earlier FAT16 attempt - and the
USB flash is 4GB, formatted to FAT32 on my Linux system (I have no
Windoze to speak of now in my home, and even rawrite alternatives can
be an issue). Thanks for the tip on 'rufus', but the drive is only for
shuttling data files between systems. I guess I will try rewritable
CD's for such a role "if pain persists", though I seem to recall that
older hardware don't always read the CDs so reliably. Good grief - all
my fallback floppies seem to be disintegrating too - trouble at mill,
Cheers
