OK I took notes this time. Try to install real freedos (not run it inside linux inside parallels)
Parallels has you pick options Picked DOS and then under that Other DOS Gave it 192 MB of memory and a gig for its harddrive. All this is happening in the paralles window on the mac desktop. Used the FreeDos 1.0 Full CD I downloaded and burned Feb 27 2007 Installed boot manager. Restart and get the startup screen with the boot manager and Freedos as the choice in boot manager However when I try and boot freedos i get the following: freedos is booting please be patient Invalid Operating System hmmmmmm..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bonnie Dalzell, MA mail:5100 Hydes Rd ---- Hydes MD USA 21082-----EMAIL:[EMAIL PROTECTED] freelance anatomist, vertebrate paleontologist, writer, illustrator, dog breeder, computer nerd & iconoclast...
