The installer is just a "best guess" type of thing, not perfect by any stretch. It may be trite to assume users are already familiar with DOS, but that's somewhat implied. http://help.fdos.org/en/hhstndrd/base/mode.htm But here's a partial (better?) solution: ======================================= set CPIDIR=%DOSDIR%\cpi display con=(ega,,3) mode con cp prep=((853) %CPIDIR%\ega.cpx) mode con cp prep=((,737,869) %CPIDIR%\ega5.cpx) mode con cp sel=%DEFAULT% set CPIDIR= if "%DEFAULT%"=="853" keyb us,,%DOSDIR%\keyboard.sys if not "%DEFAULT%"=="853" keyb gk,,%DOSDIR%\keybrd2.sys echo. echo KEYB: Ctrl-Alt-F1 to disable or Ctrl-Alt-F2 to re-enable! echo. ======================================= P.S. More specifically, it would be nice to know which codepage(s) and keyboard layouts you personally intend to use for your language.
