I have been using FreeDOS for about as long as it has existed - it still
runs my accounting and desktop publishing programs. The first app that
has always gotten installed is Acronis OS selector V5 (OSS). I have
used OSS to boot many versions of DOS, OS/2 and Win. I claims to be
able to boot Linux.
Long ago the market forced me to use Win. I have had a LAN since DOS
was the only PC OS. Current WEB sites have forced me to use current
browsers, and current browsers have forced me to use current Win.
Current Win says I don't need a LAN, I can use the cloud instead.
When Linux was becoming common, I tried it, and decided it was not the
solution to any problem I had. But Win, for me, has become unusable.
When Win7 had updates to offer it provided a list, and I could chose to
install each or not. Win11, grabs a machine and tells me I need to
wait, maybe an hour, while it updates. One such update left me with a
black screen which took much time, help and effort to recover from. I
have cleaned that machine for Linux.
I have installed three different Linux partitions. None have created a
boot manager. There is an empty 2G space at the front. Can I make it
Fat32 and put FreeDOS on it?
TY
Ray
