[Freedos-kernel] FYI
I've been seeing reports of FreeDOS crashing on machines it's installed on. I've also gotten some direct email from people about applications that ship with FreeDOS and then there are problems. I guess with the wider use of our little projects, we'll see and here more of these. What I'm doing personally is trying to get in touch with the HP folks who use our OS. I'd like to see if we can work more closely with them. Hopefully, we'll avoid some of the issues before the machines are shipped. I'll keep folks posted of any developments as they happen.

Pat, I am having him/her go into bios make sure that booting from cd as well as the boot order are set properly. If that doesn't help, then we've gotta modify the boot iso, which is gonna be fun, especially since I don't know his/her expertise level. I wish I knew how to do all the stuff u guys do. My eyes just glaze over in admiration. Where did yall learn to do all this stuff? But I can surely do this. , as I said, it's the least I can do for yall. Have a really blessed day!

Re: [Freedos-kernel] FYI
Pat, as a forencisist, I can tell u that the hp bios is pretty problematic, that may be where some of the difficulty lies.

[Freedos-kernel] Kernel 1495 brief test
Hello all, I've tried the 1495 automatic build (OW, 8086, FAT16) and there are no _major_ regressions--in other words, the standard stuff still works. It is bootable via grub4dos (have not tried any native boot sectors yet), and here's what I've loaded (or run): JEMMEX LSL (NETWARE 16-bit) RTEODI ODIPKT HDPMI32 HXLDR32 FreeCOM ARACHNE (I have not gotten internet working) -but that's off-topic EDIT VDE Not tested so far: GEM (XM or Open-) CTMOUSE (doesn't work w/ Synaptic touchpad) Brett's USB drivers (usbuhcil works on my laptop) Working PE for HX JAM (SHOULD BE TESTED-SFT changes) Stacker (PC-DOS OpenDOS) NLS- I don't use it Disk utilities of any sort -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.

[Freedos-kernel] Drivers compilers
Eric: Thanks for telling where to find the minimal OW--versions are 1.3 (16bit targets), 1.7a (not downloaded), and 1.8 DOS only--20+ megs (I think-not downloaded). (Also on the page--DJGPP small versions; to kernel builders: IGNORE THESE) For what it's worth, Borland C++ 5.5 may not be able to build the kernel; it seems to be 32bit only (Win32s supported, HX-compatible, reputedly supports RTM32). Does OW support -1, -2 optimizations (186/286)? Other compilers (unsupported): bcc (prerelease, .COM/ELF output, ...) Desmet C (buggy included libs, bad at optimizing--but 3rd party FOSS optimizer, GPL, we have our own libs for the kernel) MARS C (similar to OW in features, free, but don't know license) Could we include an ANSI C binding as a starter for new bindings? Pat et al.: The cd driver issue sounds like it may be a SATA drive (GCDROM/XGCDROM/UIDE(JR) needed): NO IDE/ATAPI drives found (XCDROM fails to load) FDCD001 not found (SHSUCDX finds no drives) How soon is FreeDOS 1.1 coming out? A new boot floppy image would probably fix it, if it includes the right drivers. ?nnnDEVICE=JEMMEX.EXE ?nnDEVICE=UIDEJR.SYS /D:FDCD001 ;If I recall correctly Thank you, Ibidem -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
