Hi All Long time user of FreeDos on CFC in Industrial environment. Long time user of FreeBasic in the same environment. Retired and experimenting with a new device.
Have recently purchased an 86Duino in the form of EduCake. Basically an x86 with breadboard on top. Fairly new product using a Vortex86Ex processor. The support is minimal, cause there are still only a few users. It is being sprouted as Dos. FreeDos, Windows & Linux compatible. They supply an image for the SD card, which boots as intended. I am having difficulty running programs in this environment. Basically: if I load CWSDPMI and run say Edlin32.exe it works (or appears to) If I dont load CWSDPMI and run Edlin16.exe it works (or appears to) Loading CWSDPMI and running a FreeBasic (Dos) compiled two line program it generates an exception. Division by Zero. Print "Hello World" End Compiling this program with PB7 (16 bit Dos) and running it, doesn't create any exceptions but no message printed. Now I have dealt with this processor before on Industrial CPU boards, and have not had this problem. At this stage I should note that there is no monitor facility on this device, so the serial port becomes the monitor with: MODE com4:9600,N,8,1,P ctty com4 Autoexec.bat (the relevant bits) @echo off SET dosdir=C:\FDOS set PATH=%dosdir%\bin set NLSPATH=%dosdir%\NLS set HELPPATH=%dosdir%\HELP set temp=%dosdir%\temp set tmp=%dosdir%\temp SET autofile=C:\autoexec.bat alias reboot=fdapm warmboot alias halt=fdapm poweroff MODE com4:9600,N,8,1,P ctty com4 C:\FDos\Bin\DosLFN.com C:\FDos\Bin\cwsdpmi.exe cd\ rem C:\FDos\Bin\ctmouse C:\FDos\Bin\LBACache C:\FDOS\Bin\SHARE.com FDConfig.sys device=c:\FDos\Bin\himemx.exe dos=high,umb LASTDRIVE=Z switches=/N break=off dos=high,umb dosdata=umb files=60 rem stacks=16,256 Bootup detail.
