How does that differ from http://freedos-32.sourceforge.net/ which is based on the assumption that running the whole kernel in protected mode makes protected mode apps using DOS extenders a bit faster? Which barely seems to be the case, even with the DOS extender layer inside the kernel? Of course it can be fun to write a protected mode OS from scratch if you like a challenge. Plus dosemu / dosemu2 show that extending DOS yourself can make it easier to run Windows 3.x. Note that this is about running Windows itself, not about running apps FOR Windows directly inside DOS. For the latter, you can use the HX RT system by Japheth: old website: https://www.japheth.de/HX.html old version: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hx-dos/ new version: https://github.com/Baron-von-Riedesel/HX Happy testing :-) Eric _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
