Re: [Freedos-user] new ndn file manager version and mgrx update?
I'm trying to download NDN, and I can't find the source code for this. The downloads are all binary-only. There's an NDN project on SourceForge, but it is long since abandoned. And they don't seem to have a source code repository there anyway. On Wed, Aug 21, 2019 at 5:15 PM Eric Auer wrote: > > Hi!

[Freedos-user] Keyboard configuration
Phil Reynolds asked: > How would I configure and compile a new keyboard layout, > if for reasons of having a non-standard one I need to? XKEYB configuration files are text-only and well explained in the documentation for this software. You can configure nearly any keyboard layout using it. . ___ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
Re: [Freedos-user] PXE freedos and img file
Hello all, But i can't figure out how to add my .exe files to this FD12LITE.img file. >> Any ideas ?> On a Mac, you can just mount that img file by double clicking it in finder.> On Linux, you can mount it through the loop back device.> On Windows, you may require additional software to mount a filesystem image. IDK. I don’t use widows. A quick note: the actual filesystem itself, where the extra files should go, starts at offset 32256. (Offset 0 is the master boot record and partition table.) So on Linux it is necessary to specify the offset to mount from, e.g. # mount -o loop,offset=32256 FD12LITE.img /mnt ... # umount /mnt I _think_ a Mac would be able to automatically parse the .img file and find out where the filesystem is --- though I am not sure.

On a Mac, you can just mount that img file by double clicking it in finder. On Linux, you can mount it through the loop back device.

(Unless running in advanced mode) My advice is to partition and format the desired location outside of the installer. Then run the installer and let it install FreeDOS. Note... it will install to what FreeDOS sees as drive C:. So, you may also need to hide partitions if a different destination is required. > > -- > Sent from: http://freedos.10956.n7.nabble.com/FreeDOS-User-f3.html > > > ___ > Freedos-user mailing list > Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user ___ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
[Freedos-user] PXE freedos and img file
Hello all freedos users, I am trying to use freedos on a pxe server in a university in France to update the BIOS of a large group of computers. The system boot and launch the freedos image file via the network (the LITE version), so i have access to the dos shell, it works. But i can't figure out how to add my .exe files to this FD12LITE.img file. Any ideas ? ___ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
