Netbootdisk is really impressive. Automatic network driver detection, 98 different drivers on a 1.44 MB disk. There's even a nice video walkthrough for those who want to get an impression of the software: <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yb3YcLDpa8U> Netbootdisk does not install packet drivers. It installs a NDIS driver and MS Client so you can create and use network shares. Netbootdisk also installs a shim that makes the NDIS driver work as packet driver as well, so you can use ftp or ping. Nevertheless if you don't want MS Client you may be better off with just a packet driver (if there is one), which leaves more free memory for applications. >> I installed FreeDOS in Virtualbox last week. Virtualbox uses a AMD >> PCnet-Fast III card. A free packet driver "pcntpk.com" for this card >> is available at: >> <http://www.crynwr.com/drivers/amdpd.zip> Correction: I just saw that the driver is already part of the FreeDOS "FullCD" distribution. So if the network part has been installed, it can be located here: C:\FDOS\DRIVERS\NET\CRYNWR\PCNTPK.COM The virtual network card of vbox should be automatically detected by the FreeDOS installer and a line be added to AUTOEXEC.BAT. If this is not the case, automatic detection can be restarted with: C:\FDOS\CRYNWR.BAT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
