Re: [Freedos-user] Dual boot recommendations ?

[Florian Xaver]

Hi,

you could use WinVista's bootloader.

two ways:
1a)install winvista on fat32 (first you have to install onto ntfs, then  
copy to fat32 etc. google for it)
1b) or make 2 partitions, one with FAT32 and one with NTFS, install Vista  
at the NTFS drive

2) boot into freedos (via CD) and type sys c: c:\kernel.bin...this will  
write the bootsector into the file kernel.bin. Kernel.sys should also be  
copied to drive C:
3)under vista copy kernel.bin onto ntfs-drive (under vista also drive c:)
4)in vista add c:\kernel.bin=freedos to boot.lst (a system file on c:\)

Now you should be able to multiboot.

bye
  Flo

 Hi All,

 I'm going to be installing MS Vista on one of my computers soon.

 I'd like to also install freedos on the same machine. Can anyone  
 recommend a dual boot program ?

 Thanks,
 Tim

Re: [Freedos-user] FreeDOS Resident Calculator

 OOC FreeDOS, like most DOSes, does not have its own resident
 calculator.
 OOC TSR calculator is a very useful tool for DOS users and 
programmers.
 OOC Therefore, I wrote the FreeDOS Resident Calculator (FDRC) -- TSR
 OOC calculator with 32-bit arithmetical/logical operations,

  Not enough (because _complete_ calculator should support both
 programmers integer calculations _and_ non-integer arithmetic). Most
 convenient (in sense of non-integer arithmetic results) calculator,
 which I
 seen, was NDOS' [EMAIL PROTECTED] opeartor.

FDRC is _incomplete_ calc (version 0.1.5). Fixed- or floating-point 
operations
will be implemented in the future versions.

 OOC reverse
 OOC polish notation,

  Useful only for experienced programmers and/or in case of very
 limited
 resources. Not convenient for end users.

Maybe. But RPN is simple and do not requires much resources.
