ROM or RAM? No surprise, however. I'd expect FreeDOS to get confused in that situation. The Minisport can reportedly boot from A:, the built-in ROM (which gets you MS-DOS 3.3) , or D:, the battery backed RAM drive. (There was an optional 3.5" external floppy, but I don't know whether it could boot from it.) How did you get the FreeDOS files to the Minisport? FastLynx? If you have a spare 2" floppy the Zenith used, see if you can create a FreeDOS boot disk on the 2" floppy in A:. then see if you can boot from it. ______ Dennis https://plus.google.com/u/0/105128793974319004519 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.
