Maybe. But it's still nice to lower the temperature of the chip, to make it

Hi!
Yes! The good news is that newer FreeDOS kernels even have a simple
version built into the kernel itself. [..]
Good news! Well, I should have googling for FreeDOS idle CPU,
instead of DOS idle CPU. ;)

However, the normal way to let the CPU idle while DOS is idle is to

As has been noted here in the past, WATTCP is technically not part of the
operating system,
it's a library that is linked in with the application program.
Wattcp *does* support DHCP and the line my_ip = DHCP should be all you need to
get DHCP running.
The key is that you need to make sure
hello,
I have freedos running in virtualbox on my laptop. I am trying to set up lynx

I could use some help. when I first tried to run the lynx exe file I got an

This is of course true, but there is another alternative . . .
So to sum up: if your application program uses the right

run the program and it will
The mTCP DHCP client writes output to STDOUT and to the MTCPCFG file,
which is pointed to by an environment variable. It's a simple matter of
programming/scripting to convert the output from either one into
something that looks like a static WATTCP configuration. I've tested my
