Re: [Freedos-user] FreeDOS on usb stick
As far as I know, installing FreeDOS doesn't overwrite the MBR. If you are using GRUB4DOS on your USB stick, you can add this entry after installing FreeDOS: title FreeDOS find --set-root /kernel.sys chainloader /kernel.sys The kernel.sys is in the root directory of the FreeDOS partition.

Re: [Freedos-user] What do you need from Windows world...
For web browsing, I would recommend Tiny Core Linux + either Opera or Firefox. No packet driver needed, and you can actually launch it from DOS thanks to LOADLIN.

Re: [Freedos-user] Install Grub
Honestly, I would use a newer GRUB4DOS version from http://download.gna.org/grub4dos. (0.4.4) Once that's unzipped to a floppy or the hard drive, you can use bootlace.com 0x80, then make sure that GRLDR is present on the hard drive. I'm not sure where bootlace.com and GRLDR are located on the CD. On Sat, Jun 20, 2009 at 12:26 PM, Thomas D. Deantomd...@speakeasy.org wrote: I have two partitions, MSDOS on 1 and FreeDOS on 2.

Is it still possible to use FDUPDATE on FreeDOS 1.0 or to upgrade 1.0 to 1.1?
