You might have trouble with sound drivers. MS dos 7.1 wanted me to use
windows
to install one so that I could enjoy Windows but no windows to use.
 FREEDOS doesn't care.

[Freedos-user] Writting FreeDOS Book

[Ercan Ersoy]

Hello.


I have started a FreeDOS book in my free time. My book's name is "FreeDOS 
İşletim Sistemi" (FreeDOS Operating System).


May I use "FreeDOS" name on my book's name?


May I write a FreeDOS book?


Best regards,

Ercan
