[Freedos-user] move

2004-02-09 Thread Arkady V.Belousov
Hi!

 I take a look at move31s and move31x archives and have questions:

- what is (empty) move/archiv, move/java, move/source/backup,
  move/source/nextver and move/source/ver30 directories?

- why such strange hierarchy: move/bin, move/doc/move and move/source/ver31?
  As I understand, should be doc/move and source/move.

- why introduce two archives (s and x) if s archive contains all files
  (including executables from x archive) and x archive doesn't contains
  doc/move/*.*?

- there is two editions of GPL: bin/copying (old and with CRLFs) and
  move/doc/move/copying.txt (more old, with LFs only).

- some files marked by RO attribute.

- in compare with v3.0 changed only one (source) file, but timestamps
  changed (to some meaningless value) on all files.

PS: Jim, what you say if archive will contain BIN, TXT/app and SRC/app
directories (TXT instead DOC and SRC instead SOURCE)? May you make some
template-archive (with directories and dummy files - .lsm, readme, etc),
which may be used as reference, draft for real distributives?

Re: [Freedos-user] LFN support?

 In my understanding, there's no LFN support at all, except in the DIR
 command of FreeCOM, where an existing LFN is searched and displayed.

No. There is no LFN support in FreeCOM. And there will be none, unless
available for all commands.

Bye,

[Freedos-user] FreeDOS boot images for 2.88 MB floppy and 8 MB harddisk

2004-02-09 Thread Eric Auer

Hi, I have not tested those, but check yourself:
http://www.coli.uni-sb.de/~eric/stuff/soft/by-others/ -
  freedos-boot-2.88mb.bin (only the boot sector for 2.88 MB floppy)
  freedos-boot-floppy-2.88mb.zip (boot sector and 2.88 MB image, plus
some howto and an 8 MB harddisk image).

Supposed to be useful for bootable CD-ROM creation.

Those files are a result of FAQ activity, currently in:
http://fd-doc.sourceforge.net/faq/cgi-bin/viewfaq.cgi?faq=incoming/195
(will be moved to another FAQ section eventually I guess)

Brought to you by Herbert Huang, thanks!

PS Herbert: Feel free to update the FAQ entry with some extra
information about what and how you did to create those images.

Eric.
