There's a script that gets called from FDAUTO that tries several drivers -- why wouldn't that work? And why did it work during install? Are you saying I should throw out that script and load the driver manually? How do I know which driver to use and where it's found? -- Glenn Holmer (Linux registered user #16682) "After the vintage season came the aftermath -- and Cenbe." _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
