I think that FreeDOS is a funny project and I like it. On rare
occasions I need it for BIOS upgrade on Linux boxes.
But frankly unless you have some unique binary software that only runs
on DOS, Linux is a far better choice on any hardware made the last 20
years. Not necessarily the heavyweights l

I've been playing with Balder 1.0 and customized it to my likings, no
problem. However then I decided to clean up a bit and move all files
but command.com, fdconfig.sys and autoexec.bat to a subdirectory name
fdos (A:\fdos) and edit fdconfig.sys to include A:\fdos\ in front of
all drivers/programs.

There is no kernel.sys in the Balder image - at least not any that can
be seen by a "ls -al" or "find".

I have had great fun the last couple of day remembering DOS and
enjoying the progress FD has made to plain old DOS.
So far I have a boot floppy with support for both ATA and SATA CD-ROM
and USB sticks. Very satisfying.
