When you've stripped that much out of DOS, you have *nothing*... Heck, someone was talking about porting FreeDOS to a *6502*, which has access to up to 64K of memory and I'd STILL see porting FreeDOS as pie in the sky. 68000, well you got GEMDOS, and in fact I think FreeDOS' kernel had 68K r

I suggested that too in the past. Took the project up myself and am still working on it, along with a small group of folks who are interested. On 01/13/2018 03:49 AM, Bitácora de Javier Gutiérrez Chamorro (Guti) wrote: Re: [Freedos-devel] Arduino Port of FreeDOS If is a matter of suggestion, I

If is a matter of suggestion, I would say x86 32 bit protected mode would be easier and more useful. I still remember the dead FreeDOS-32. Anyway I guess real issue is time and motivation to code, not ideas. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Remitente

Of course it is, not implying that it should be the next move by any means. Freedos has been a "me too" product for many years. On Jan 13, 2018 6:03 PM, "Ercan Ersoy" wrote: > I think developing FreeDOS Arduino port through source code changes and > some optimizations. Microcontrollers using o

I think developing FreeDOS Arduino port through source code changes and some optimizations. Microcontrollers using on Arduino is Harvard Architecture. For this reason, FreeDOS Arduino port is requires less resource than FreeDOS x86 binaries. FreeDOS Arduino port may not be realized without
