I finally was able to install FreeDOS-1.3rc2 (heu... yes it is not released yet 
... had to generate it for many hours).

I used FD13LGCY.iso (LEGACY)... as CD1 and CD2 seems gone in RC2.

Well, it does not seems this was using CWSDPMI, or trying to generate a big ram 
disk.

So no page fault error.



But it was still unable to find the packages.



I realized that UDVD2.SYS driver (CDROM, DVD driver necessary for SHSUCDX to 
work) was not loading with message like:

Nothing found, UDVD2.SYS not loaded.



It turned out that this was due to my SATA configuration in BIOS (DVD 
reader/burner is connected with SATA on my computer) was:

Sata Controller 1: RAID

Tried AHCI (not working... is it AHCI that you need to "decrypt" BIOS tables?).

Tried IDE: Bingo! Was seeing my DVD after reboot.



Although I had chosen "Install all packages with sources", it is unclear 
sources was installed.

At first I have searched some games on installed hard disk but found none.

Until I realized that I had to use FDIMPLES to install packages present on hard 
disk, but not really installed.
