Hi. Others have created a BIOS-flashing FreeDOS floppy, so I know it can be
done. Might be easiest to create a bootable USB flash fob drive, and boot from
that with your BIOS flashing software. Be aware that USB drives often get
recognized on DOS as the c: drive, through legacy mapping.

Do you have any info what happened to Shane/the OpenGEM project, the
whole disappearance happened a bit quick and starring for several
years now at the site that proclaims Something exciting is coming
soon is a bit of a drag :-( ...

IIRC, he became the IT Director or CIO for an
I encourage you to look around for what's there, and see if you can
move any of them forward. OpenGEM shows a lot of promise, but the
graphics are dated and could use a refresh. Since it's GNU GPL, I
imagine you could borrow from another GPL'd desktop environment, such
as GNOME.

Once I saw firmware in the output, I start to wonder if this program requires
a dongle to operate. That was not uncommon for dictionary programs at the time,
and is still seen today with USB dongles. Did you run this software on MSDOS
previously, and did it require a hardware device?

Also, you can try to NOT use emm386 and to NOT install USB and/or
network drivers: With the FreeDOS 1.0 ISO, I remember that those

Please don't do it like that ... it's just recycling this B.S. technology:

Thanks for posting a screenshot of Dillo visiting www.freedos.org. Just

standard HTML CSS, but does Dillo have support for the CSS directives I'm

Thanks for passing along the article, I hadn't heard about this. Sad news.
We're losing some big names in technology. I appreciated that the article
