Partition & format it as FAT32 with Windows tools like RUFUS or RMprepUSB. Then boot from this bootable USB Flash Drive. That's about all the legacy emulation a BIOS will do. Booting from harddisk/floppy then trying to get access to USB Flash Drives is troublesome due to lack of the BIOS emulation (only provided for the booted drive) as well as DOS drivers for USB/SCSI/FireWire controllers. > 2> I'd also like to be able to burn files to my optical drive as opposed > to only reading from it. Is there an app to burn files to CD from FDOS? > This also would allow me to put files to my modern PC. If you're able to find an ASPI driver, then MKISOFS or CDRKIT can do the burning. Usually this means creating a new disk image (ISO file) then writing that to CD. I'm assuming your CD drive is connected to IDE or SATA controller. If not you're out of luck. http://bootcd.narod.ru/index_e.htm lists an ASPI.SYS > Other than these 2 things, FDOS has been very useful to me. I'm so > thankful for it.
