Post ls -l of your usb drive.
As Jim mentioned, you can not just copy the .img file to a formatted usb.
You have to burn the image to the drive to make it bootable.

Once you have debugged ALL your batch files you can place `CTTY NUL' before
the command(s) and `CTTY CON' after to avoid output to screen.
See below to find how to chain/call another batch file.
Place the 'CTTY CON' first so you don't forget!
You need to be sure there are no interactive commands

Remember FAT16 partitions are limited to 2GiB in MS/PC-DOS.
So, drives are limited to 8GiB.

Hello all!
First off, I'm fairly new to this whole FreeDOS thing, but I absolutely love
the project. I never used DOS during it's hayday, but the technology has
always interested me as I think text-based operating systems are awesome.
Now with that out of the way, on to my question. I'm runni

I searched your Wiki and the freedos.org site for advice or an FAQ on
