If you want to boot multiple OSs you should get real boot manager. For
years I ran System Commander. A couple years ago that started having
problems with OS/2 on some mother boards. Since then I have been using
Acronis OS Selector. It will run as many versions of DOS and W9X on a
single C p

Eric,
actually, I tried to put the 98 on top of the FreeDos *both ways*, once from
FreeDos, and another time with a
bona fide 98 floppy boot image, which I had put on a cd (iso image, etc.).
The latest thing I tried was to first
load the fdos to 'c', reboot, then reboot again off the 98 cd boot cd.

Eric, I already tried your last two suggestions with these results: if I
installed the w98 first, then when I
installed the fdbase over it, only the FreeDos would boot from a turn on
after that; I thought to activate
the w98 from the command line(from FreeDos) but could not see how to do it.

Here's a dumb question about the 'xcopy ' command: I have a source directory
called 's', and a destination
directory called 'd'; Both of them are in the same directory, say 'c'. If I
do: cd d, then xcopy s /s /e, I get a
"cyclic error"; but if I am more explicit and use(again from inside 'd'):
