Hi Alain:

I am very interested and in fact I have done just this a couple of
times.  The FreeDOS installer installs a LOT more than
I need to run my DOS programs. It also doesn't allow control
of the destination partition.  I would use a current,
single-floppy FreeDOS distribution.

Maybe we need to get together and make one!

Thanks.
