I just found a recipe regarding USB-Sticks & MS-DOS. It says „...Although DOS lacks built-in USB support, some unofficial drivers are available. They leverage the fact that USB mass storage uses SCSI command set. SCSI hard drives were readily available during golden years of MS-DOS. The USB driver simply emulates SCSI adapter.“
(SOURCE: https://slomkowski.eu/retrocomputing/usb-mass-storage-on-ms-dos/ ) Could this also work on FreeDos? -Thomas > Am 14.04.2021 um 14:42 schrieb Eric Auer <e.a...@jpberlin.de>: > > > Hi Stephanos, > >> Dell ... looked at the problem and confirmed that: >> 1) there is no BIOS update offered for my laptop, N5030 >> 2) that the BIOs update that I was using is for model M5030, >> which has an AMD processor.
