Re: [Freedos-user] Freedos USB Pendrive

2020-03-08 Thread Joao Silva
Hi, thank you.

I though there was some kind of TSR or somo sys file to load on config.sys
or autoexec.bat to load the usb pendrive.

I'll give it a shot, it has been many years since i use DOS.

Thank you once again.

I have had luck with the following:
Insert the USB pendrive BEFORE boot.  Use FDISK/FORMAT to properly format
the usb.  Shut down and remove the usb.  Put files on usb, then insert the
pendrive back in before boot.  After boot, you should be able to access the
file on usb.

I'm not sure if this works for a Pentium, I believe it depends on the
BIOS.  There are limited USB drivers for DOS, but I've never gotten them to
work.
