Thanks for the quick response. There's no CD drive in the box, and not one available, so I can't avail myself of your experimental updated version.
OK, clean install of FreeDOS, harddrive just stops after the PCI hardware list. There are 4 weird phone-type ISA cards in the next slots; perhaps that's where things are going wrong. Hmmm. Thanks again. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Blair Campbell Sent: Friday, August 26, 2005 11:41 AM To: freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Freedos-user] Installation Difficulties > 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.

I believe this is fixed in my experimental CD-ROMs. ------------------------------------------------------- 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 ------------------------------------------------------- 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
