If it won't install nor boot, then how would you use any drivers in the

Any bug reports?

Hi,
Jack's drivers are required on a number of dos-era systems else FreeDOS
will not even install/boot. Being unable to use FreeDOS is annoying but a
working system is needed and the wishes of the owners of the respective
intellectual property have to be respected.
Cheers,
Dimitris

While it's obviously true that Rugxulo have some ranting issues, I don't
see any reason to promote proprietary software on the FreeDOS list

Hi Rugxulo,
>> Quick news from /dev/null 's drivers: [etc. rant etc.]
In short, you said "nag nag nag" ;-)
The features might still be interesting to test. Nobody
suggested to include any closed source in any distro.
