Hi!
I said it before but I'll re-iterate - any filesystem with proper
journaling would be a total banger. I still remember how Rayman ate my
FreeDOS and I still have dosfsck in my fdauto as a preventative measure.
It's slow as molasses in January however. The same program under Linux
blows
Hi,
I'm not entirely sure NT (Win XP etc.) ever supported such a thing atop FAT32
either (via DOS calls).
Via DOS calls in NT? Not sure. But in ordinary operations, it was as
normal as pie. I remember pretty well that I had to cut up >4GiB files
into pieces so that we could transfer them

Hi,
Isn't HX that unfinished DOS extender from 15 years ago that wanted to
make it possible to run Windows-only binaries on DOS, and had some
success in that field?

FAT32 is free, but IIRC there a patents problems with other newer formats
Disk size is not a problem, I have routinely installed

IIRC, FAT16 in something like classic MS-DOS 6.22 supports max ~65000
files and 2

I can confirm that MPXPLAY may work out of the box with Intel HDA.
Tested on a Dell Mini 9, which has the Realtek ALC268 card.
Hi!
You use to promote MSdos 7.1. Have you ever found
a way to get sound on it.
Sound, network and graphics are not related to DOS as
operating system: Because the kernel does not support
those, the applications, not the operating system, are
the ones who have to support it. This also means
Do you know maybe where do these limits come from?
I thought it should be 4GiB for both since this is the file size limit
for FAT32.
Best regards,

If you are using the install package, it includes sound drivers.
Will need more specifics, i. e. you have a sound card that is not working
how?

I deleted a command called KILL on it. Do you know
what that command does because I don't?
I love the large file size that it supports. Freedos is
limited to 2 gigs and PCdos stops a 8 gigs.
