[Freedos-user] Installig Freedos from the hard disk.
Hi: I have managed to install freedos onto a fat32 partition on the hard disk. This is a notebook with no optical drives or floppies. The OS boots OK and I can run DOS programs. How can I install the rest of the software? I have the fd11src.iso file, from which I copied all its files to C:\, including kernel.sys and command.com. -- Don't Limit Your Business.

Hola Enrique, In this case you will need to 'mount' your iso file A software like SHSUCD [1] can help you I don't really recall the command line to load the iso but other guys on ths may give you more details :) [1] http://www.oocities.org/jadoxa/shsucdx/ Saludos cordiales, Geraldo Netto Sapere Aude = Non dvcor, dvco São Paulo, Brasil, -3gmt site: http://exdev.sf.net/ On 3 July 2015 at 13:36, ENRIQUE STEFANINI enriquestefan...@yahoo.com.ar wrote: Hi: I have managed to install freedos onto a fat32 partition on the hard disk.

The best way to move files in general is using networking. Does this laptop have any ethernet interface? If not, you might want consider adding a PCMCIA ethernet adapter, there are plenty that are compatible with FreeDOS, and they are quite cheap on top of that (I got mine on ebay for less than 15 euros, shipping included). Then, specifically talking about installing DOS software - try using FDNPKG of course, it has been designed exactly for that purpose :) http://fdnpkg.sourceforge.net Mateusz On 03/07/2015 18:36, ENRIQUE STEFANINI wrote: Hi: I have managed to install freedos onto a fat32 partition on the hard disk.
