Hi!
If I understand you correctly, Windows XP is NOT on that
FAT partition, so every OS already has a separate partition?
In that case the answer for MANUAL install would be: Simply
skip the FDISK and FORMAT steps, it is enough to use SYS to
make the FAT partition bootable. If your XP also has
Hi there
I would like to install FreeDos 1.3 on my hard drive. I have Windows XP
and Lubuntu 18.04 installed, both bootable from the Grub boot manager.
The first partition is FAT and 2G in size and where I would like to
install FreeDos. Is it possible to install FreeDos without destroying
Grub
In case anybody needs this in future,
LIVE & LGCY are USB images, so that is apparently just not compatible
with Serva.
After formatting the disk and SYS'ing it, I can boot and read the USB
drive, so can get the files in that way.

We once had logics to add FreeDOS to Windows 98 and similar

This may be true on your pc, however, I have successfully

Thanks for the quick response. There's no CD drive in the box, and not one
available, so I can't avail myself of your experimental updated version.
OK, clean install of
