I have some problems to install freedos on a laptop Compaq presario 1245 The hard disk is 5736 Mb I made a 502 Mb partition for DOS and remaining used on Linux and Linux Swap grub installed on the second partition and running well. The second partition has linux installed with grub.
- Using CD 1.0 setup is impossible to install the system and get a booting system. adding the freedos as grub entry dont boot, allways said that is not a boot disk. - Booting from CD I tried "sys c:" and the command don't worked because sys can't find "kernel.sys" - Using "dir /s kernel.sys" I find a copy of that file on the cd. - Executed "sys c:" from that folder worked OK. Finally I can boot from my grub with chainload... - After boot I noted that the keyboard have problem. Writing "dir" I get "diir" and the command dont executes well (so the problem is not in the screen). going back and erasing the reamining i the command executes well. I have similar behavior with all the vowels that appear twice and some special characters that appear combined with a different char. For example pressing "/" appear "-/" ¿Suggestions? - -- -- +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Marco A.
