Hi Jerome,
thanks for the explanation, but are we talking about DOS RAM (at most 640 kB) here? Or EMS, XMS, protected mode? In FDIMPLES, FDINST of FDNPKG, and other involved apps? How much RAM do you recommend to be free? Could FDIMPLES shrink before calling FDINST and grow back when it exits? Note that Lukas had been booting from a Win9x floppy to run the CD installer, as his BIOS does not boot CD and he did not use the special installer boot floppy either, so I expect his context to be rather unusual for the installer and wonder which parts are likely to fail in that situation and what could be done to warn the users or, better, to work with arbitrary DOS boot disks :-) Regards, Eric _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
