This problem does not occur in older models of Advantech, may be is a special case. >> lbacache FLOP > This will - because you give no "BUF number" argument - use the default > size of 2 MB cache.

I need to learn more about freedos, thanks for your tips.

Small size, very rugged case, no fans in the motherboard, hard watchdog,very fast boot, supports VGA/LCD. The disk is a removable solid state SanDisk 64 Mb.
