This is indeed a treasure trove of material.
Does anyone know where to find the user manuals and binary files?

Hi Jim
Thanks again. My problem is that I have assembler source code from 40
years that occupies about 680Mb that needs to reside on one drive in
order to assemble. Then there are the application programs. All this
currently resides on an ancient XP machine. I have stayed with Lubuntu
18.04
Hi there
I need some help please. Does any one know how to get around the size
limitation of the access Linux folder when running FreeDos under QEMU?
The access folder is named "dosfiles" as in Jim Hall's article on
Opensource.
Running the command:-
sudo qemu-system-i386 -m 32 -rtc
Hi Jerome
My original question was about the maximum size of access directory. It
appears to be about 512Mb. FreeDos will not run under QEMU if this size
is exceeded. My image file was 200Mb. I have removed KVM and QEMU and
had planned to reinstall with a 2G image as you suggest. This being
mnt
And when you're done, you can unmount it with this:
guestunmount $mnt
Also: You don't have to run QEMU as root (with sudo). I never do.

Does anyone know if there is a Dos utility that preserves or retains
directory dates when copied or moved?
Robocopy for Windows has this ability.

Hi All
Some feedback. Creating a 2G image allowed me to assemble source code
correctly. The only penalty being speed. About 6 to 11 times slower than
running DOS under XP.
I mounted the image and copied source files from backup directory to
mounted C: drive.
Lubuntu Linux error on boot up
Loopback devices pay some penalty. 10x seems like some
option is missing to improve performance.

Correction. My apologies. My memory doesn't work all that well these days.
Re. Linux error on boot up. I incorrectly said deleting the files in the
/dev/crash directory fixed the problem.
The correct directory is /var/crash

QEMU runs successfully on my Linux installation using the display option
sdl. eg. "-display sdl"
If I use "-display gtk", I get the following error "qemu-system-i386:
-display gtk: GTK support is disabled" when invoking QEMU.
Anyone know what this means and how to fix it?
The reason for wanting
It is unclear what the display option defaults to.
Freeing up the F11 function key can be accomplished by typing Ctrl-Alt

to learn if all files were moved
from one place to another, as if doing a backup to a USB drive?
Are you wanting to check file attributes?
Are you wanting to compare the kind of information a tool shares about
directories?

Hi Eric
I think the issue is more complicated/ subtle than I first thought. If
you create the structure I showed, you will be able to reproduce the
problem. Two other FreeDos respondents were able to reproduce the
problem. I was perplexed as to why I could not find files that I knew
existed.
Hi All
It appears that if a directory exists with the same name as the file
one is searching for, the directory listing is terminated early without
error.
I was searching for a files named "Q" with no extension. I used the
commands "DIR Q /S /B" and "DIR Q. /S /B", but it only revealed files
names don't have extensions, this only picks out
the directory names (and of course, any files without extensions, but
those are rare), so that should find the q directory for you with
little to no trouble.

As per Tom's request, below is a short batch file to show the issue.
It appears that the DIR command prematurely terminates it's listing
without error if a directory bearing the same name is encountered.
As I understand it, the DIR command should make no distinction between
file and directory
