Jerome, this is not an installer issue, it occurs following an otherwise
successful install and reboot. I think it is a DOSLFN/Memory
Management/SHELL issue. It's a bug that has been around for a long time and
the only way I have gotten rid of it is to forgo DOSLFN.
On another note, I am in need of a generic DOS program installer, V8 looks
like what I want, perhaps after FD 1.2 is released you could contribute
such a tool to the repo?
