I did find where it's hanging in MetaDOS. (0.84-pre4, TURBOC, Feb. 22) It's a nested batch file, called from within FDAUTO.BAT, using "for" and "if" (%BOOT%:\FIX\MISCEXE.BAT). I know that's not an exact diagnosis, so I can't say for sure that I understand why it's hanging. But that's what I'm seeing. Actually, it's short (five lines), so I'll just quote it here: **************************************************** @echo off if "%RAMDRIVE%"=="" goto end if not exist %RAMDRIVE%:\utils\nul goto end for %%a in (%BOOT%:\fix\*.exe %BOOT%:\fix\*.com) do if /i not "%%a"=="wget.exe" copy /b %%a %RAMDRIVE%:\utils :end **************************************************** IIRC, you can nest .BAT up to eight levels, right? I don't think I'm hitting that limit, and it all seems to mostly work fine in old (2006) FreeCOM. I need to try again and look more carefully, maybe something else will become obvious. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
