[Freedos-user] Fw: upgrade my PC from FD 1.1 to FD 1.2

Yes, it would only upgrade the kernel and the console. DOS and FreeDOS are customizable enough as to allow for upgrading only the programs, drivers and other components individually as they are needed. I always replace individual components instead of updating the whole set of binaries.

You can simply back up the kernel file and the console. Back up COMMAND.COM, KERNEL.SYS, IO.SYS, IBMIO.SYS, etc., in your root directory, and then just replace those same files for the files from FreeDOS 1.2.
