If you boot from the USB drive, all you need do is run the sys

sys d:
should do it in your case.
you should also copy command.com to the target drive and
preferably write a config.sys and autoexec.bat there using
a text editor of your choice...
The sys command doesn't copy the command.com file to the target drive?
Ideally, it should already be there, but while I haven't specifically
installed freedos on a stand alone system, I thought the copying of
command.com to the target drive was part of the sys command. Does
freedos not do this?
Thanks for the clarification either way.
