You mean an actual CD-R (or similar) burned with fd11src.iso (40 MB)? So no virtual machine? Did you verify the md5sum to make sure you downloaded it correctly? http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/distributions/1.1/fd11src.md5 2e0ab23bec79ff33071d80ea26f124dc fd11src.iso Or maybe you need to reburn it at a slower speed? > Seems it doesn't find the package: > > "ERROR!

Certainly you don't need "full" BASE + UTIL at all, only kernel and shell plus a few other common things. At worst you could do a manual installation. So you're trying to run on real hardware? What cpu + RAM? What kind of software is it, and what does it need (XMS, EMS, DPMI, mouse)? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
