As far as I know, installing FreeDOS doesn't overwrite the MBR. If you are

FreeDOS:
title FreeDOS
find --set-root /kernel.sys
chainloader /kernel.sys
The kernel.sys is in the root directory of the FreeDOS partition.

of "hard disk" simulation for USB sticks, but there are
howtos on the www which explain the details. You will
have to try which styles are supporte
Hello everyone!
Is it possible to boot from a USB stick and also use
that as the primary "hard disk"? In other words,
without any other mass storage devices? If so, how do
I do it? Supposing that the BIOS of the target machine
is capable of booting from USB.
Thanks!
