That's a bug, the 4th option not
O.K. It looks like it depends at least on pthreads, curses, termios,
and linux-specific tty devices.
Often (as is the case with curses), linux C libraries are available
under FreeDOS with DJGPP; they are the same libraries, just
re-compiled (DJGPP has a fairly POSIX-compatible c-library, it
Thanks for the pointers. The 4th step is to get it working with
ncurses and djgpp. Where do I get the 32 bit dos compatible DJGPP
compiler from??? A gem interface is clearly a stage 2 problem.
GCC is available for DJGPP. I recommend getting DJGPP with GCC/G++
and various other packages as

Thanks everybody.
Reboot it's not a option. I'm creating a script for bios update. Part of

On modern PC, your BIOS already does USB disk support for you and DOS.
You mean USB legacy support (for storage)?
Do BIOS update 100 % step by step as the manual says. No experiments wit

Hi guys;
I've formatted my hard disk, installed the boot manager using the option in
xfdisk and installed freedos. Yet, LILO continues to remain the boot manager
on my hard disk and only shows LINUX as an available kernel.
I just received a 8-bit PIC microcontroller with a low pin
