Please explain.
kernel/int2f.asm generates reference to _nlsInfo which remains unresolved. I had to rename it to NLSINFO there for linker to succeed. 2007/05/01 CVS version did not compiled "out of box".

Without LFN there is not such problem. I am however I myself am interested only on system which support LFN. 'touch FOO' fails in exactly the same way. As far as debugging showed it is DJGPP's utime() (or more exactly DOS Fn 0x5705, which fails). I'm going to test under VMWare Server-1.0.2. It is perhaps more clean environment rather than DOSEMU in case when Linux directory is used for simulating drive. I'm not going however to install FreeDOS in real partition on HDD.
