I have an IBM Thinkpad T43 and also either an R40 or R60, (I'd have to go
upstairs and check) so if your laptop is either one of those, let me
know and I'll try an install.

No, FreeDOS isn't special,
My goal is supporting the built in Ethernet infrastructure on the
thinkpad.
My understanding, perhaps incorrect, is that freedos has networking
infrastructure in the system itself?

Hi folks,
Due to some layered power issues in my new apartment, I am considering
installing Freedos onto a laptop as a backup for my desktop computer.
My main reason for considering this is the likelihood, given its an IBM
