Good catch! Thanks! D:\COMMAND.COM /P /E:256 FreeCom version 0.84-preXMS_Swap [Sep 25 2005 15:16:48] Error reading from drive C: DOS area: general failure (A)bort, (I)gnore, (R)etry, (F)ail? I C:\>D: D:\> ================= When there is time, will try the installation to /dev/sda1 again, using the current installer. Incidentally, this machine has FreeDOS on /dev/sdb1 and PC Native Oberon, Alpha, 2003-01-05 on /dev/sda2. /dev/sda is a spinning drive and /dev/sdb is a Compact Flash card. Bluebottle BootMan is installed and has no problem starting either of the two working OSs. Oberon and BootMan are available from the ETHZ server. http://www.ethoberon.ethz.ch/ http://www.ethoberon.ethz.ch/native/ ftp://ftp.ethoberon.ethz.ch/ETHOberon/Native/Update/Alpha/ http://www.ethoberon.ethz.ch/bootman.html Regards, ...
