I am writing a TSR, and having trouble getting it to work with FreeDOS. It installs just fine in MSDOS, also also installs just fine from a FreeDOS command prompt. But, when I try to install it using an INSTALL= or INSTALLHIGH= from CONFIG.SYS, the machine hangs. The hang occurs right after the program exits (INT 21.4Ch or INT 21.31h). If it helps in troubleshooting, the TSR does allocate and leave in place some "extra" memory segments that the TSR needs.
I can install some of my other TSR's just fine from CONFIG.SYS. If I load JEMMEX, when the problem program exits, JEMM displays an Error 0D at CS:EIP X:Y, where X is always the CS of the previous TSR that was installed, and Y is always either 0000FFFF or 00010000. If I don't use JEMM, the machine just hangs with no error messages at all. I've been looking at some of the source code for FreeDOS, but nothing has revealed itself yet. I'm just wondering if someone could explain, at least in general terms, what is "not there" or is "different" (other than the shell program) when INSTALL is being used as opposed to an installation from the command-line? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Problem-w--CONFIG.SYS-INSTALL-tp30076203p30076203.html Sent from the FreeDOS - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
