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.

2008/05/21 17:37 +1000, [EMAIL PROTECTED] mkdir,creates a directory chdir,moves to a directory rmdir,deletes a directory which also abbreviate to md, cd, rd. The last only then is allowed when the directory is empty--speaking of which, the command del (erase) deletes a plain file (not a directory). There is dir, with all its options, it takes absolute relativ references wherof rfryer wrote for showing directory contents. In an older DOS, one did help at the command line: help dir or by itself. Later all the commands were eked with the switch ?: dir /?. I do not know what was implemented in FreeDOS. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
