Well, with this exponential growth, I suspect that we should be seeing
DOS192 (192 bit DOS) somewhere in the near (2 to 4 yr) future.

I totally agree. At this stage, anything done to FreeDOS doesn't warrant a
2.0 moniker. I'm seeing a 1.01 in the immediate future due to the kernel,
and utility updates (CHKDSK, DEBUG, etc and so forth).

At that rate, FreeDOS will be at 9.0 in a matter of months over things that
really amount to a .01 moniker...but hey I aint the boss, just a player in
the game...
For example, Imre just fixed a bug in CHKDSK and the kernel syncs (including
findfirst/findnext) may get a 1.1, but any fixes after
I have a (silly) question. A brand new installation of FreeDOS 1.0 is
supposed to emulate what version of MS-DOS?
The reason I ask this is because while comparing FreeDOS 1.0 and MS-DOS 6.22
side by side, I started looking for features and other system utilities. I
found that COMPINFO is the
Ok, I was thinking more along the lines of a file that combines all the
fixes, hence the version scheme...
CHKDSK fix, kernel update, couple of other changes...all wrapped up into one
file...download and install...now FreeDOS 1.0 is patched up to 1.0.1 (or
1.1)
The newest CD automatically
You know, a small piece of code could be written to simply read the
partition table and check for FAT/FAT32 partitions instead of the whole
%comspec% /f thing. Actually, I thought the setup program was going to be
re-written anyway.

Well, the secret to the read
I remember hearing something about that...the far pointer thing...But what
version of GCC was that? I'm sure if DJGPP is using the latest compiler

Hmmm...lets see...
FreeDOS compiled with DJGPP...
The OS can boot the same way, the go32 extender can be added to all the
executables to run in protected mode on 386 and higher machines (386 is the
baseline for LFN anyways, right), so basically the installer would have to
