If the installer is run in advanced mode, you can specify what drive you want 
it to install FreeDOS. Advanced mode can be entered 2 ways. Either by using 
"setup adv" from the command line or by pressing CTRL+C when it is waiting for 
user input. As long as dos can see a drive, it should be able to install to it. 
However, you would still need to know if you want it to go on E: F: X: or 
wherever. My only concern is SYS transfer of system files messing up your boot 
code.

We will keep our fingers crossed. The installer works great. It's just getting 
the installers loader to setup an environment for it to run under that is 
compatible with all of the bizarre system configurations it may encounter. :-)

Hopefully have preview 13 out in a couple days (as free time permits).
