Thanks for the new version! The good thing is: I got a running system with the first try. The bad thing is: there are still some severe annoyances. I tried to install FD on the same image where the previous version of FD was installed already (size 16 MB, about 9 MB still free). I did *not* alter the language or the install drive. During the installation process i got some dozens "[undefined message X.X]" displays onto the screen, but since the screen is cleared so often I cannot tell more details. At the end there is a message "F.R.E.E.D.O.S.", but the system doesn't wait to long and I got back to the primary menu where I now choosed "boot from harddisk". the freedos menu from fdconfig.sys appears (the previous fdconfig.sys has been saved to fdconfig.old) 1. when I select "Load FreeDOS with EMM386, no EMS..." The boot works , but I'm getting 4 messages: bad command or filename - "[Undefined" on the screen (because there are 4 lines "[undefined message x.x]" in C:\FDOS\FDAUTO.BAT). 2. when I select "Load FreeDOS without drivers" I get the same 4 messages as with 1., but what's more important, after the C:\> prompt has appeared, there still comes the message "error reading from drive A: DOS area: drive not ready (A)bort ....". So this bug has *not* been fixed :(. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
