You wrote in your initial post about "warnings" FreeDOS is giving you; so it's clear to me: you've got hardware-related problem. System reported it has trouble while trying to access your disk. Maybe something wrong with your LBA settings (Normal/Large/LBA in BIOS)? Anyway I would try a different drive/cable pair first -- regards, Zbigniew _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
