Re: [Freedos-user] Installed Freedos at home
Hi from memory try : mkdir,creates a directory chdir,moves to a directory rmdir,deletes a directory directory is either dskdrv:\name\...\name or .\name\...\name first is called absolute reference and last is called relative reference,then there is . which is current directory. to refer to a file append \filename.ext to directory specifier in either form. try to see if help command informative richard Quoting Alexandru Fira [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I installed Freedos at home, amazingly, without messing up my PC. I had an NTFS partition (without Windows) that had to be converted to FAT32 (it took more than an hour, the rest went smoothly). Now Ubuntu GRUB loads all the OSes, including Freedos. It was easy to put programs onto the Freedos partition from under Ubuntu but I cannot open the directories that I put there. Please tell me with what command I can open the directories. They are just there on the partition. Running programs is easy, I just type the name of the program at the command prompt and then press enter. Please send info about a comprehensive DOS tutorial.

[Freedos-user] Dos extender : Read Old AT interface disk
Hi you lot About 15 years ago I wrote but did not get to quite assemble a dos extender to support 4GB segments with a 386 compiler that supported the the old (RIP) MS-DOS but generated segment selectors,instead of addresses's,ie a flat memory model, switching at the MS-DOS API. Windows came out and 386emu.exe,so i lost interest. I can get it finished my self,it will need migrating across to a new 486 compiler,old compiler unsupported now,but is installed on disk,distrubution disk lost. Is this of any interest to the Free-dos community? If so I need to get a 386 AT AT interface hard disk read,and copy to a CD,have the cyl,hd,sctr,info. Can any body help in this matter,can ship hard disk to anywhere reasonable. If this can be done I can finish it of and voila a freedos application address space of 4GB if a compiler can be provided that that generates segment selectors,ie protected mode code.

Gents, I spent the day trying to figure out how to make FreeDos work on my Windows XP computer. NO luck. I could not even figure out how to download the fdfullcd.iso file. When I clicked on it, it just showed a bunch of text and high/low bit characters. Why put so much effort into a project that the regular person can't make work?
