Some refresh about FreeDOS internet use cases and perhaps graphical web browsers would be nice: https://opensource.com/article/17/6/freedos-still-cool-today
1) I guess there is no good web browser that would actually work (only Lynx and similar). So it is impossible to download some driver for example. Even Win98SE with 2000 NT kernel is not useable. Some port of Linux GUI web browser would be nice. 2) Some article about bridging old IPX/SPX DOS apps over TCP/IP would be nice. Cherry on top would be configuring OpenWRT router or Raspberry Pi middleware to route this IPX over TCP over Internet (probably some VPN tunnel) to use networking features with colleague remotely. 3) Some real example of LFN (LDIR commands) would be nice. On default installation it does not like the codepage (I guess it is 852 or 850). Cherry on top would be example with LFN and Samba. Mostly I am interested in integration of modern features on old hardware. That is also the reason why I use FreeDOS and not something else. So the focus on integration new with old is the most important subject for me.
