Ran myself a kvm instance through virt-manager. intel 480, 2mb ram, 512mb disk, realtech nic. Freedos v1.2 had to make sure the mtcp dhcp was in the path environment variables, and I had to make sure wattcp was installed, but I did get it to run.
What worked - * clearcache * license * dumpcfg * listlocal * listfiles What I did bump into was that I kept getting 'Repository download failed!' so things like search and updates did not work and just to be sure, I did run the original fdnpkg search and was able to find the package. For example 'vim' Great job by developing this project though! If there's any further changes, I'll give it another try. ~Ilobmirt [https://cryptid.cafe/ilobmirt] [https://gitlab.com/ilobmirt] On Wed, Sep 24, 2025 at 5:16 PM victoria crenshaw via Freedos-devel < [email protected]> wrote: > New version launched! > > > i got this to finally work like fdnpkg but with mtcp's htget instead. > > i crushed the bug with a work around. my tests show that it works. it > needs further testing > > http://4ch.mooo.com/4/fdos/fdnpkg16.zip > > > get this package and install with fdinst install fdnpkg16 > > > On 9/24/25 1:16 PM, victoria crenshaw via Freedos-devel wrote: > > yes i made FDNPKG 16 bit and it calls mtcp's htget externally > > > > he did not he was using the wattcp-32 bit library > > > > hence the reasoning for 32 bit code for fdnpkg > > > > > > My version is 16 bit > > > > On 9/24/25 9:39 AM, Jerome Shidel via Freedos-devel wrote: > >> > >>> On Sep 23, 2025, at 10:32 PM, victoria crenshaw via Freedos-devel > >>> <[email protected]> wrote: > >>> > >>> https://github.com/sparky4/fdnpkg16 > >>> > >>> make sure u have the mtcp configured and ready to download files > >>> from online for this one > >>> > >> > >> Great. :-) > >> > >> Did you actually make FDNPKG 16 bit?
