Re: [Freedos-user] Booting FreeDOS from a SCSI Hard Drive

2006-05-03 Thread Mark Bailey

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!

Mark

The development kernel fixed the Error in the DJ mechanism! but still
doesn't find the shell.  Any suggestions?  Is there a problem with SCSI
drives?


Does it successfully boot naked without memory managers loaded?

Can you ask Steve press F8 and trace line by line?
Or this happened before FreeDOS 2 sec pause?
Will the SCSI base address conflict?


Rgds,

Thanks very much.  I'll have Steve try to trace the problem.
I am rather DOS illiterate, I'm afraid.  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.
