Yes, it is very easy. I didn't do it because I can't test it. I'll give it a look if somebody can test it for me or can give me (or sell, but really dirt cheap :) ) a legal copy of DOS 3.30. > Also, your code assumes a Pentium (which > makes sense for something running under VMWare) - it looks like it could > be adapted for older CPUs, such as the 8088.

Yes, only there, which can be easily solved doing a couple of "pop bx" instead of the "pop gs" and "pop fs". The only other 386 specific code is in the VMWARE interface. > My interest is in doing a virtual hard drive or file system (not decided > yet) using the network redirector interface.

Something related to SMB/CIFS, maybe? :) Best, Eduardo. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable. Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense. http://p.sf.net/sfu/splunk-d2dcopy2 _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
