Hi Tomas,
While the paid version of serva has more features, I
would really assume that booting ISO over network is
one of the things you can do for free. And I believe
you said booting from usb is not supported on aopen?
If you google: "pxe" iso freedos then you get a list
of other people expl

Could also be himemx and probably exe, not sys. But if
you cannot find it on "the disk", maybe you mean ISO
image? That contains a separate floppy image for the
boot process

I tried that.
The line that triggered the error was (I believe) calling

Hello,
It would help if people tried to understand the context.
Serva is a windows program. You put a .img/.iso file somewhere and
that's it.
There is no `line with boot options' that I mess with. Theoretically,
I guess I might open the .img, mess a bit, put it back together, but...

Hi guys,
Apologies if I'm way off target here, as I am no FreeDOS expert, but as
soon as I read the words "Opcode error" my first thought was has he tried
pressing tab and adding the word raw to the end of the command line in the
boot options?
Hope this helps,
John.

I managed to boot with the `x86 floppy' version.
`Automatic partitioning' failed; fdisk seems to work but refuses to
set the windows partition to bootable (sigh); the disk (ie the Freedos
partition) is not recognised; format says `illegal drive.'
Would it be a good idea to format the Freedos part

It seems to be a normal PC. Am running Win 7 on it.

Hi! Not sure what Serva is, but as you mention PXE,
you probably use a Linux type boot loader and a
MEMDISK style bootable ramdisk to load DOS? Then
you will have to be careful with memory managers
such as HIMEM or EMM386 to not accidentally get in
conflict with the PXE and MEMDISK infrastructure
The `legacy' .iso file also fails (different error).

Hi all,
Am trying to install Freedos using Serva. The machine does not allow
boot from USB (and there is no other removable media).
Am getting `Invalid Opcode at 0FAE 1068 0046 0001 0002 ...'
Have tried 1.2 and 1.3, the floppy.img files. This seems to be a
requirement of Serva. I also tried
