2) Kernel version only by numbers is not enough, there are too many variants that show only in the kernel description string string (like fat32)
This is shown on kernel startup. The DOS Function 30h code is (inthndlr.c, line 696)
/* Get (editable) DOS Version */
case 0x30:
lr.AL = os_setver_major;
lr.AH = os_setver_minor;
lr.BH = OEM_ID;
lr.CH = REVISION_MAJOR; /* JPP */
lr.CL = REVISION_MINOR;
lr.BL = REVISION_SEQ;Adding *strings* just for information purposes in the precious resident space is a bad idea.
and what about all the SYS CONFIG options that are patched into it?
*version, *fat-support *date ( plus the word CVS if non-official release ) *compiler
SYS CONFIG is about *editable* options. The above are *informational* data. Boot the kernel and it'll tell you all this ;-)
