[Freedos-user] Problems installing FreeDOS Beta9 Service Release #2 On my 486
Hello! I have problems installing the new FreeDOS Beta9 Service Release #2 on my old 486 SL with 4mb RAM. I've been using FreeDOS on the computer before, so i figured that there wouldn't be any problems installing SR2 on it. As the drive was already formatted since before, i didn't format the harddrive before beginning the installation. I have no CD-rom drive, so i have to use the disksets provided on you site. The problem is that it halts when trying to run textinstall.exe.. It complains about that i can't find the file and then aborts the installation. I've checked the disks one and two times and they are valid. I've also tried to use clean, new floppies to write the images to, but same result. Has anyone managed to install the SR2 from the diskset, and if so, did you have any problems? Would be great if you could help med get this working..

[Freedos-user] CD/DVD drive non-recognition problem solved
I was unable to read CD/DVD-ROMs in FreeDOS even though I tried a number of different drivers (ATAPI-CD, ATAPICDD, VIDE-CDD, XCDROM, and even the venerable CYBIDE). WIth some very high-powered help, the problem was finally solved, so I thought I'd pass the solution along as I know other people have had similar problems. My mobo is a Tyan S5360 (i7520), new last year, with a Phoenix cME First BIOS Workstation PRO v. 1.05. The mobo includes an I/O chip with two SATA channels and two IDE channels. What was happening was that the CD/DVD drives weren't being found by the drivers. It turned out that I had set the IDE channels to native mode in the BIOS, which caused the drivers (all but one of which were written before 2000) to fail because their hardware addresses weren't the traditional values. So if anyone is having a CD/DVD drive recognition problem in FreeDOS, try turning off native mode for the IDE channels in the BI OS.

Would be great if you could help med get this working.. nobody has succeeded, as textinst.exe is missing from the diskettes. I'm working on fixing this. Next version won't have need for LOCATE.COM, so there's enough free space on the bootdisk again for INSTALL.EXE in other words: Beta9SR2 is cd-rom only, as most recent FreeDOS distro's are. upcoming (and delayed, I'll never set release dates again!)

Re: [Freedos-user] XCDROM bug still there
I tried to run the same DirectCD-made CD-ROM with XCDROM version 1.7 and it still only showed two of the files on the CD. The CD works fine with Windows XP and with FreeDOS using the popular VIDE-CDD.SYS. Version 1.8 will be available as soon as Johnson can upload it and it should fix this issue. -- Fall is my favorite season in Los Angeles, watching the birds change color and fall from the trees.

So if anyone is having a CD/DVD drive recognition problem in FreeDOS, try turning off native mode for the IDE channels in the BIOS. Message from Jack Ellis: Native PCI Mode is ONLY for big servers, which often have many more devices than we do and thus must re-arrange their device I-O addresses! Regular home user systems hardly ever need Native PCI Mode and MUST NOT be set for it unless the user KNOWS he has software which REQUIRES it! Most DOS drivers (including XDMA and XCDROM) are written to use Legacy IDE channels at I-O addresses 1F0h for the primary or 170h for the secondary, NOT any other addresses! Note that mainboard UltraDMA controller chips handle UltraDMA functions at PCI-assigned addresses DIFFERENT than the main-controller 1F0h or 170h addresses, since UltraDMA was added in 1994 AFTER the original 1F0h/170h IDE design. This is O.K., but Native PCI Mode is NOT!! Best wishes! Jack R. Ellis --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!
