I'm very sorry that misspell your name.
Corrected. Please check.

Hi! I am happy to announce to availability of an updated FreeDOS
Install CD, containing all of the disksets and also some enhancements.
After testing, please e-mail me with suggestions for additional
software to be included/excluded and other things. Jim Hall is in the
process of downloading and
Bugzilla is back!
The FreeDOS bugs have been re-imported into the new Bugzilla system. I
haven't finished updating the Bugzilla templates to use the FreeDOS.org
look and feel, but I'll fix that soon. In the meantime, I thought
FreeDOS developers would like to have access to their bugs.
Hi,

Definitely not worth the effort, I think. Complex, not failsafe, and
users who cannot EDIT their CONFIG SYS should better not
Hi,
The ISO still uses the graphical installer, which needs 3-4 MB of free
RAM and a 486dx (386 plus FPU, that is), do we care? The text mode
installer is free from those pointless InstallShield-cloned looks and
pointless klik-thru GNU license and it would work on pre-486dx/8mb PCs.
I assume
Hi, the SVGA installer CAN use even monochrome text mode.
The point is that it requires a 386 plus 387 :-(.
And no, there is no automatic check for that at boot time,
the only check is that you just cannot boot from CD-ROM
on pre-386 anyway.
Some 486sx (no floating point stuff) can boot from
Jim Hall has just finished uploading the small ISO to ibiblio, so here
is the url:

This is probably the preferred place to download the file right now.

Hi, my point is not about whether it is feasible to extract
the driver name from some user input. The point is that the
user is confined in some artificial you must tell me the
driver name dialog system. He cannot use PG, DIR, tab-
completion, and so on, and he cannot decide to just boot

On my ISO it attempts to detect a 586 or higher, and if this is
detected, it defaults to the SVGA installer, otherwise it defaults to
the text mode installer. This way the required RAM is almost
garunteed, and also a math co-processor is implied. SVGA graphics are
also more likely to be
Hi Alex,
Working on penultimate versions of DISPLAY and KEYB already :)
There's a very small program that sets up the UK keymap; KEYBUK.COM,
which is only 432 bytes long. I use this instead of KEYB to squeeze as
much as memory as possible out of the UMBs.
KEYB is meant to be universal,
Some ideas I have for improvement are allowing the user to select from
a list of crynwr drivers, and a bootup logo after installation to hard
drive is completed (with blackout and banner). If anyone has a good
bootup logo, please send it to me (preferrably in 320x200, GIF87
format, two blank

I also sync'd it up to the oldos mirror at http://fdmirror.oldos.org
I should have the big iso within a day or so of
