If it comes down to it,one could simply create a config option for the LBA
support.By default,LBA would be enabled.If the user experiences issues
booting,or if it detects an issue booting,it would then revert to the old

Are you asking us if it is possible to create a multiplayer game in FreeDOS

possible.You would need the appropriate drivers to use the systems NIC

Something similar happened to my own website (I'm running a gaming

to choose a 3rd party host.The 3rd party host apparently had a failing

I fixed the problem.It turns out I was using the wrong utility.I was using

FreeDOS,it formatted the SSD,and allowed me to install the OS.Sorry for the

Should we add a backup utility to the UTILS package?Like Microsoft's BACKUP
command?So if the user wanted to backup everything (A command line option
could be invoked to backup packages).I am not sure if we already have

First thing I noticed (This may be just me.),is that we need more memory

I read a few heated emails.Let's all calm down and discuss this.So,I
understand that the current version of M/TCP isn't open sourced.That's
fine.We still have one from two years ago,which is not THAT outdated.It's
not like people are going to try connecting CORTANA to DOS.So there is
really no urge
I'm sure within a month or two's time,he will have completed the current
version and move on to the next version,henceforth releasing the "Older" so
to speak,source code.And if not,it's not like the users can't just download
it and install/utilize it themselves.

First things first,we should try remaking the installer.We are trying to
better the installer,right?Why not create a new UI for the installer and
make it more efficient?Perhaps better package handling routines?Just some
ideas I am tossing around.

I've never been able to get a working DOS network.I can't even get my
FreeDOS laptop to 'talk' to my windows desktop.

If it is alright,I will make the installer.I haven't made any PHYSICAL
programs yet (besides making suggestions).So I will do it.

I have a 'lil HP from around the year 2000.It had windows XP on it,with a 7
GB harddrive (It's a little netbook,which is why the HD is small).It used
to boot into FreeDOS perfectly (I would boot into a flashdrive and run
FORMAT /S on the HD).But,now,if I try to do that,it boots,with a bunch of
rand
hub, you must build it yourself with the mkV8.bat file.

I tried it out a while ago.The only question I had about it was this:why
does it take five minutes making statements such as "Grabbing
keys...","Revving engine",etc.Other than that,I found it useful.

I agree.It is interesting,but it has no real purpose for the FreeDOS distro.

Again,as I think,I think it is just a little nifty program for those of us
who are fans of "The Matrix" trilogy.As for getting a response from the
computer,I just get "No Response" over and over again.In the video on the
website,he logs in as "HASH".

The two languages I know are C++ (Somewhat) and BASIC.(Visual Basic falls
under the BASIC category).
