I use the ONE USB BOOT stick for two laptops (only one has an optical drive).
I was able to recognize the optical drive by simply putting AHCICD.sys into the \FreeDOS\BIN\ folder (on the USB stick) and for the laptop with the optical drive, the system boots up nicely. However, because I want to use the ONE USB stick for both machines, now on the second laptop (without optical drive), on bootup, the computer locks up at the AHCICD.sys stage. When the AHCICD.sys file is simply removed, the usual FreeDOS checking on 4 CD possibilities "errors out" in a controlled manner and allows continuation of the BOOT-up. So how can I have this 5th CD check (i.e. checking via AHCICD.sys) in the manner of the 4 CD checks already in FreeDOS.
