Heh- I hate OS emulations- it absorbs cpu power!! I have Dr-Dos installed in its own partition and boot to it when I want to use it. DR-Dos has native FAT32 in the kernel but its designed for floppies and doesn't work right with hard drives so although it sees drives larger than 8 gig if you try to run a program off a fat32 partitiion it'll end up messing up the partitiion- if it even runs. I've been emailing these people in the hopes they'll improve it. Also the multitasking doesn't work right with sound cards. Plus it needs work to improve port communications in a taskmgr window. Native usb support would not hurt either!!! Have you ever run Wfw3.11 on a libby? I did a few years ago on my > 50ct and was really suprised how snappy it was. I Yes, both wfw and win 3.1 on a 100CT. Snappy as heck!! But by the time I got to it the video chip manufacturer was no longer supporting it and I couldn't get drivers. So occaisonally my video will mess up. I need to run windows with Dr-Dos so I can modify my DOS cardbus drivers. Its really all I ever use it for. remember trying to > run it under DR-DOS on a desktop system but didn't get very far. Interesting. Did you remeber to disable Vdisk.sys? > Caldera has to keep it alive for the lawsuit. Has it been settled yet? I think so. I'm pretty sure Caldera sold Dr-Dos. > > terry John > > On Thu, 2003-04-03 at 20:27, John Musielewicz wrote: > > Date: Thu, 3 Apr 2003 19:21:58 -0600 > > From: "John Musielewicz" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Subject: Dr-Dos is still being developed!! > > > > Just in case there are any other Dr-Dos afficieonos besides myself here's a > > link to what was Caldera's Dr-Dos!!
