Re: [Freedos-user] UDVD2 drivers not starting on UTM MacOS - help needed

Thanks BJ

UEFI would certainly be a problem. FreeDOS (like any DOS) requires BIOS
services to run. FreeDOS cannot run on a system using UEFI.

This page has downloads for converting Wordstar to HTML and RTF, as well as
some that are generically marked "converter."

Hello,

Does anyone know of a program to convert WordStar documents to PDF,
plain text, MS Word format?

Thanks

Hi there - new to this ML, but this thread showed up when I was looking for 
help on the exact same problem (UTM for Mac not booting FreeDOS) and I think I 
managed to solve it.

The solution seems to be to uncheck the "UEFI Boot" option in the QEMU settings 
pane when you edit the VM. I also had the FD13 boot floppy inserted into a 
virtual floppy drive, but I don't know if that mattered or not. The FreeDOS 
installer booted up, and I was able to partition and format the drive and am 
now installing FreeDOS. Everything looks good so far.
