Re: [Freedos-user] How to make a FreeDOS Bootable CD
Good day, Basudeb: It is easy to create a FreeDOS bootable CD from Windows. See http://k1ea.com/hints/Creating_a_Bootable_DOS_CD_V%201.5.pdf This uses the same technique (isolinux) as the FreeDOS installation CD and has instructions for FreeDOS and MSDOS. Hope this helps. Mark Bailey basudeb gupta wrote: Hi all, I am a new user of FreeDOS trying to port my MSDOS 6.2 based application to FreeDOS. We need to make a FreedOS Bootable CD with the required drivers. Now the CD I get downloaded from the site has options only to install on hard disk or boot from CD without any drivers. Now how do I get a proper bootable FreeDOS CD with drivers? I am sure this has been done over and over many times already. Or is it not possible? Is it a limitation of FreeDOS? Please help. Thanks Basudeb - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Re: [Freedos-user] Connect to internet through Router
hi, what do you mean by connect freedos to the internet? you do not connect dos to the internet, you only connect some dos programs to the internet. is that what you mean? Yes, that's it. then i recommend the arachne browser - it is a web browser, email software, and ftp and news browser. and it has a built-in tcp/ip stack. as you mention that you use a router, you can let arachne use automatic / dhcp configuration. one thing which you do have to load before running arachne is a packet driver for your network card. some drivers are already in our distro. please write which network card you use - you can use pcisleep L to find out - and please reply via the list :-). I'm using a network card with Realtek chipset. Thanks. Guillermo Martínez Jiménez - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Guillermo Martínez Jiménez It is also possible to wrap an NDIS2 driver and make it look like a packet driver if your chipset doesn't have a packet driver. Many newer chipsets don't. :-( A realtek chipset isn't quite enough information. What is the output of pcisleep L? Mark - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
