Hi,
Then one day you discover it is being used by someone like Seagate.
Definitly a good news.
Nevertheless, if the main consideration was the merits of the operating=20

Interesting.
Due to the nature of the FreeDOS license an OEM can decide to use
FreeDOS in their product line without contacting anyone or making
arrangements with the people involved in the project.

But I'm sure we can did something to make FreeDOS much more easier.
Interesting ideas, all of them.
1) Simplified the version naming convention
2) Officially state the stable and testing version Kernel and FreeCOM

Hi!

2) Officially state the stable and testing version Kernel and FreeCOM
information (eliminate some testing branch by merging stable code with

3) make a table of Quick download from FreeDOS homepage. Only have

Hi!
2) Did it appear that I was suggesting how to configure FreeDOS?
A little bit. However, I'm also suggesting (forcing..) people how to
configure FreeDOS by creating a sample config.sys/autoexec.bat when

Hi Jim,
Good idea, but I'm not sure how to implement this. I'm open to
suggestions. Add a link to the yellow announcement box for Odin and

add text links below the Download

Instead of ODIN, i would post Single-Disk-Distribution, because ODIN

A link features would be also

Oh, you mean if you designate a UMB which has memory addresses used by the

I think yes, unless you desperately need the 32k extra UMB space.
