Re: [Freedos-user] FreeDOS FDISK issue with Windows Build
Gerry Hickman wrote: Hi Kenneth, can't work out how these numbers relate to the directory listing on the fdos.org/kernel website. 4 different versions, 2034, 2035, and 2035a are on sourceforge file release page, cvs kernels are the ones (either stable, eg 2035a-cvs or devel 2035w-cvs) on fdos.org I'm currently looking at this page http://fdos.org/AutoIndex/index?dir=kernel/ But I can't see anything that says 2034, 2035, 2035a. Can you advise which file I need to download? Sorry if it's obvious! To get 2034, 2035, 2035a, or any other released version, please see http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=5109 as all releases are available on Sourceforge, only cvs builds [unreleased daily builds of current source; no version] are available on fdos.org, ie pre-release (stable series) and development builds only). Sorry, again I don't understand. I don't see anything called 0.84pre on the fdos.org/kernel page or directory listing? it is the cvs one, cmdxms.*.zip or similar; or any other than the one named command.com (which I think is the last officially released one). 0.84 will be released soon, I'm looking at the page now, but all the cmdxms.*.zip are saying they are HEAD, and I believe I need the unstable branch to test this... FreeCom only has one branch that I touch (HEAD is just cvs terminology for the primary branch); though other branches do exist (state unknown and/or already merged into HEAD). I updated the descriptions a little, so hopefully it is clearer which are the recommended versions for more general testing/use.

Re: [Freedos-user] FreeDOS FDISK issue with Windows Build
Hi, Thanks for the help finding the files! Here's the original text from Bernd, note where he says 'unofficial'/'development', and gives 'fdos' as the site: just get the 'unofficial'/'development' versions of components. *SYS 3.6 from www.fdos.org/kernel (sys.dev.com) *kernel 2034, 2035, 2035A and the CVS kernel *Format 0.91U (see www.freedos.org frontpage) *COMMAND.COM 0.84pre (www.fdos.org/kernel) *FDISK. can't work out how these numbers relate to the directory listing on the fdos.org/kernel website. I'm looking at the page now, but all the cmdxms.*.zip are saying they are HEAD, and I believe I need the unstable branch to test this... FreeCom only has one branch that I touch (HEAD is just cvs terminology for the primary branch); though other branches do exist (state unknown and/or already merged into HEAD). OK. I updated the descriptions a little, so hopefully it is clearer which are the recommended versions for more general testing/use. Great! Any extra descriptions are helpful:) I see 2.0.35a on SourceForge, so that must be the Kernel I need. On the fdos.org site you've put description {roughly 0.84pre}, so I'll go with that one for the COMMAND.COM -- Gerry Hickman (London UK) --- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects Teams * Testing QA Security * Process Improvement Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf ___ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user

*kernel 2034, 2035, 2035A and the CVS kernel I see 2.0.35a on SourceForge, so that must be the Kernel I need.
