Re: [Freedos-user] Booting FreeDOS from a SCSI Hard Drive
Hi Michael: I will have Steve try removing himem.exe/emm386.exe from config.sys and running naked.. He is not very knowledgeable about DOS and I don't have a SCSI computer, so this may be a slow process. He says he is seeing the following: - Booting FreeDOS with kernel version 1.1.35 gives me the following 8 line error message at the bottom of the screen when the boot process fails: Illegal Instruction occurred CS=14C2 IP= SS=14C2 SP=01DC DS= ES=0AEC EAX=8826 EBX=00760011 ECX= EDX=01F6 ESI= EDI= EBP=01F8 Opcodes @CS:IP 00 FE A2 9D 01 89 EC 5D Aborting program Bad or missing Command Interpreter: command.com /P /E:256 Enter the full shell command line: At that prompt I tried entering a:command.com and a:\command.com and got the Bad or missing Command Interpreter / Enter the full shell command line error message. Ditto for d:command.com and d:\command.com. Entering c:command.com or c:\command.com produces the 8 lines noted above. - So, it looks like C: is being recognized... THanks for your help!

What do you mean by Will the SCSI base address conflict? Do you think the BIOS grabs some high memory that emm386 might affect? The current fdconfig.sys loads emm386 without any options: device=emm386.exe I do not recommend a no-option approach if there are any problems suspected or flagrant. At a minimum the X=TEST option should be present. You can also try NOVDS in case there is a SCSI conflict. --- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
