Thank you for your reply.

I have a usb boot device, I made it with Balena Software. I would like to
enable normal support for USB drivers. I tested
https://github.com/crazii/USBDDOS but this does not work , this say :

Devices not found :(

I'm a little bit disappointed because I thought FreeDOS 1.4 was more
advanced. I a few words, I would like  to have a "full setup" for my retro
computer.

At least I Can use freeDOS directly with the USB Live but I would like to
have a normal setup.

Why FreeDOS is not ready for this by default ??

Thank you for your help !
