I have a FreeDOS BOOT USB stick with 5 partitions (C:, D:, E:, F:, G:) where
the C: partition (512 MB) is the FreeDOS stuff and the other 4 were created via
Freedos as an option by me.
So far, I can only see the first three in freeDOS - Windows 10 can see all 5
partitions (drives) on this USB

I am trying to setup FAT12 drives so that I can test doslfn and doslfnMS which
have been very recently updated.
I can only work via bare metal mode (usb BOOT disk is C:\ with also partitions
D:\ and E:\). To date I have created a FAT16 partition (D:\) which both Windows
and FreeDOS can
Assuming that in future having USB full install is still available (there were
mentions in the past, I think, not to even have USB option) - is it easily
achievable to have bigger than the 512 MB C:\ that exists?
I do not actually "install" FreeDOS as I use the USB stick as a BOOT stick for

I downloaded AHCICD.sys and on booting up FreeDOS RC5 from a USB stick in bare
metal mode, the relevant parts of the process are:-
UHDD.sys

Bios-handled disks : 3
1 char device installed

I may be misunderstanding the situation but in my case I created a USB BOOT
stick using the full USB version (RC5).
It may be a while before I switch to 1.3 (no hurry for me since I am
preoccupied trying to get things to work, which is "slowly" going OK) -

Many thanks for your time and information.
Although I have not extensively tested my NEW FreeDOS RC5 USB BOOT stick (to
use on a HP INTEL i7 Xeon laptop with 32 GByte Memory and 3200x1800 display) -
the following somewhat summarizes my setup when booting off the USB stick (and

@Jerome
Thanks for reply.
With 3 different HP laptops - SRDISK does work and the MAXIMUM RAMdisk is 512
Mbyte (not one byte more).
I experimented with xmsdsk.exe and obtained LARGER RAMdisk:-
i3 INTEL -> 2,146,140,160 bytes for E:\ RAMdrive
i7 Xeon -> 1,554,317,312
It is interesting for me
I am new to FreeDOS and trying to convert over to RC5 from a bare metal USB
BOOT disk that does not use any FreeDOS material.
With my old setup, I successfully created two RAM drives (D:\ and E:\) of
approximately 1.3 G Byte and 128 M Byte respectively. The C:\ drive was just

I am investigating installing FreeDOS 1.3 RC5 as a bare metal installation
(i.e. everything is on a 16 GByte USB stick) and will try to boot off the USB
stick (i.e. the USB stick becomes the C:\ drive and so the hard drive with
Windows 10x64 is not accessible).
I have never used FreeDOS before
