Hi Art,
attached an iso-file which boots freedos and mounts the mass-strorage
device attached to the usb controller.
the image also contains fdisk (and xfdisk if fdisk fails), format and
the sys command for making the usb stick bootable.
Hope that helps.
Norbert.
P.S. Due to sourceforge reject
uhh, that's been done for a few months. look at [distro dir]/pkgs
(like www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/distributions/1.0/pkgs)

Has anyone thought of breaking the freedos.iso image into zip archives
and allowing users to download it in peices? would be better than
messing around with cdrom image files of megabyte proportion>?

How do you install the full distro onto an USB flash drive / USB-HD? The HP tool doesn't work for this, especially not with an USB-HD. And everytime I boot the FreeDOS full CD with a plugged-in USB-HD or USB flash drive, there comes an "Invalid Opcode" and then it stops.
So what to do ?
Hi Art,
I think you can try "mount -t vfat -oloop
/opt/freedfos/freedosfile.img /mnt/freedos"

If you can boot from the USB stick, you don't need and
can't use USBASPI.SYS and DI1000DD.SYS. If the
BIOS will boot the USB stick, it will automatically
appear as either A: or C:. Try that.

It was my impression from browsing around faqs and wiki last winter, when I was
setting up
FreeDos for the first time, that Fdxxms+Umbpci was preferred over Himem+Emm386.
Maybe that has changed since then, I don't follow this list all the time.
Got interuppted on this subject, but back on it now. I have got two USB
sticks formated with the HP program. Can read and write to both as fat32
from Linux or Windows.
Downloaded the USBASPI.SYS and DI1000DD.SYS and have them available.
How ever, I tried the links in Mark Baily's last email
http
I use UMBPCI:
DOS=HIGH,UMB
DOSDATA=UMB
DEVICE=D:\FDOS\BIN\FDXXMS.SYS BIOS NUMHANDLES=128
DEVICE=D:\FDOS\BIN\UMBPCI.SYS
Eric: rtspkt does not load itself high, but as with all dma related drives, it
is possible that it
even does not work properly when you load it high manual
