[Freedos-user] just an idea

Ray, do you have more info? which cdrom (the burned FreeDOS beta9 prerelease 4 ISO-file?) did you use, in which cdrom-drive? what if replacing AtapiCDD by another cdrom-driver? search for VIDE-CDD.SYS. it's most stable vendor-supplied ATAPI cdrom-driver. you succeeded in installing freedos from

Hello Julien, I see your problem. The freedos cdrom is bootable, using Eltorito cdromdriver, so you can even boot from SCSI harddisk. however, I'm not sure that it makes your SCSI harddisk visible. maybe there's no need to load a SCSI controller driver, maybe there is. (for SerialATA there isn't
