I'm no kernel developer, but the various DOS kernels are not 100% identical behind the scenes. I think they load to different initial segments, too. Unfortunately, most people don't test very well (or only MS-DOS and not FreeDOS, etc.), hence just because it works in one doesn't mean it will work in both. If anything, I would rather they tested FreeDOS first (as a more available target), but they don't do so, don't ask me why. So bugs remain. Yes, it could be something else, of course, but I still blindly guess it's a bug on their end. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.
