Package manager: FDNPKG — FreeDOS Network Package Manager. FDINST — Part of FDNPKG that does not support networking. FDIMPLES — Text User Interface that uses FDINST to add and remove packages that are on the install media. > So I always just unzipped the packages. > Please make sure it's mentioned on the online help and the website. > > By the way, I told the installer to make a full installation, > but it didn't install everything on the CD. That's also a little > surprising. BASE — Base packages. FULL — Complete FreeDOS install. Pretty much everything that is on the SMALL USB Stick image (Roughly 30mb of packages). This does not include many EXTRA packages (about 450mb) that are provided on the CD or BIG USB stick versions.
