There is one other strange thing. Sometime when I boot off the flash drive, my C: drive isn't detected and my D: and E: partitions move up to C: and D:. Which is generally annoying because C: holds all my FreeDOS files. I'm still in FreeDOS through the flash drive, but I can only access those FreeDOS files it holds, not the ones that were on C:. However, it might only do this for two or three reboots, then it does detect C: partition properly and everything is happy for a few boots, then back again. Maybe it's an Interaction with BootMagic, since an NTFS partition is hidden when FreeDOS boots. Or maybe it's general USB goofiness. Or who knows, a time-out value is too low?

Strange. Would this be FreeDOS specific? Anyway, it should be possible to hold all FreeDOS related files on the USB flash storage disk. It's not that big :)


Still, I must admit, having a fully bootable and runnable 256M FreeDOS system on a keychain is kind of neat. If your system supports that USB boot.

Yes, but there are differences between support and 'support' :(

bootable USB would allow me to make testing easier on a reallife system. diskettes are so slow..
