I left my FreeDOS 1.0 CD and shutdown the computer My mother (that can´t read english) turn on the computer and the computer boot fro the cd. The she seen an unkown menu press enter several times. Result, she begins a FreeDOS install on my computer first HD. Damaged my grub. Lucky appear that something goes wrong, and the install was aborted. So was not damage on the content of my ntfs and ext3 partitions, but I need restart with knoppix in order to fix the grub.
Lesson: - Dont left you FreeDOS CD on an unattended computer. Specially when children or other people use it. - Would be great if the menus on the live-cd requires a better confirmation prior to install, not simply press enter. Something like: To PROCEED TYPE 'INSTALL' - The screen may include messages on several languages -- -- +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Marco A.
