Re: [Freedos-user] Minimum FreeDOS on a 1.44 Floppy with Symantec's Ghost

But (for various reasons) I need fdisk and format on it. Ghost, when creating the floppy, uses PC-DOS, but does not add these commands, and I do not have a PC-DOS version of them. If I use the MS-DOS versions, which I do have, I get Incorrect version. I have PCDOS2000 by IBM I can make you a boot disk with whatever fits. If you have good bandwidth I can make an iso of that which you can dd back to floppy at your pleasure. Or I can do it with 2disk and 2 floppy which are free and send them as well. -- +-CWSIV+ --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo. Introducing Yahoo!

[Freedos-user] Shane Land GEMini 3 further details
This email is about the GEMini GUI file manager that I created and maintain for FreeDOS. I have been getting some questions about the code and license underlying the GEMini GUI file manager, most especially because the next release of the file manager will use a lot of Digital Research GEM code instead of code generated by the FreeGEM community. Will this change the license that GEMini is released under? In short, no. GEMini will be GPL. FreeGEM is based on the GPL DR GEM code. By going back to DR GEM code the license will stay the same. The applications files included with GEMini Release 3 are as follows: WRITE.* - parts of the write application, used to view files. Released by Caldera as GPL, but the source code was lost in a flooding at DR fifteen years ago. GEM.EXE the main GEM GUI file. Source code available. GEMVDI.EXE the GEM video file. Source code available. DESKHI an icon set. GEM SDK can edit and alter this. SDPSC9 video driver. GPL, but the source code for this may also be missing. DESKTOP.* this is the FreeGEM desktop 3.2. Source code available. DESK1.ACC an accessory set (GEM calculator and clock). Source code available. Everything apart from DESKTOP.* is now sourced from DR GEM 3.13 or DR GEM 1.6 code. CHOICE is the FreeDOS choice. CTMOUSE the same. SHUTDOWN is a GPL application. You can download GEMini Release 3RC3 at http://gem.shaneland.co.uk/downloads/GEMINI3RC3.zip GEMini Release 3 (final version) should be out in around a week. I will also have the sources to download from my site at that time. Regards Shane [EMAIL PROTECTED] gem.shaneland.co.uk --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo. Introducing Yahoo!
