I don't think I'd recommend "rolling your own FreeDOS" to a user who just said he's not comfortable in fixing Windows if he broke it. Building your own FreeDOS distro is good for developers and IT backoffice staff who need to have a custom FreeDOS environment, but I still recommend installing in a virtual machine for casual FreeDOS users. -jh ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
