I'm struggling to install FreeDos Beta9Sr1 on an old Pentium box with a new (refurbished) harddrive and no CD drive. Installing just the base packages from floppy works, but on startup from the harddrive, it simply sits there, harddrive not spinning, after the hardware checks.
I've tried to sys c: /bootonly the drive, reformat the drive with and without the /s option, and now I'm running into an "Unknown Previous DOS operating system. Error level code: 3 3" error that simply halts the FreeDOS install process. Suggestions? I'm a bit rusty at DOS.... ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
