Hi David, you can dualboot with freedos and vista, but depending on whether your vista is installed on a fat32 or a ntfs drive you will have to use windows or linux tools to setup the dual booting. DOS cannot mess around with ntfs drives...
If you burn ISO to CD/DVD, the RW just lets you re-use the CD/DVD. For modifying single files, you have to format the disk as UDF, not as ISO. However, MSCDEX / SHSUCDEX do not support UDF - although I heared about an experimental one. The unsupported beta probably was about defragging fat32. You should defrag fat32 from Windows, that should be a lot faster than from DOS. The strength of DOS is more in fat16. I have no idea in which way Clearwire ISP has problems with non-Vista systems. Probably just a stupid helpdesk which cannot tell you where to click in other systems ;-) Eric ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join us December 9, 2009 for the Red Hat Virtual Experience, a free event focused on virtualization and cloud computing.
