Hi, Your problem is related to the fact that your "nasm" command doesn't call nasm.exe directly. Instead, it calls a batch file named nasm.bat which has been placed in your %PATH% by the FDNPKG installer. This nasm.bat file is pretty straight-forward: @ECHO OFF C:\DEVEL\NASM\NASM.EXE %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 While in theory such trick should work (and it does work with most other utilities out there), somehow it doesn't play out right with nasm. Simply edit your CONFIG.BAT to set its XNASM variable to the full path to your copy of nasm.exe, and you're done. Enjoy! cheers, Mateusz ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Freedos-kernel mailing list Freedos-kernel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-kernel
