Hi, Primarily... FDIMPLES combines, parses and formats data from multiple locates and files to provide a convenient TUI for installing, updating or removing packages individually or in groups or sets.
However, the actual installation or removal is performed by invoking the command line utility FDINST. FDINST is one of the command line tools included in the FDNPKG package. The errors you encountered are being encounter by FDINST. Although FDIMPLES uses little RAM and gives the majority to FDINST, it could be insufficient for extremely large packages like Perl. There are only a couple such massive packages included in FreeDOS 1.2. For those, you can attempt to manually install them by locating the package and using FDINST or FDNPKG from the command line. If it is free memory related, it may be just enough to get a package installed. If the problem still persists, you may be still short on RAM or something else may be going on. _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
