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 :)
No way to tell really other than to reformat the flash disk, install a different operating system, and start testing out its boot results. Which I gotta tell you I'm not too interested in doing right now.
You can hold all FreeDOS-related files on USB easy, but if you test with a bunch of larger applications and data, you can eat up more than the disk size, especially if it's one of those wimpy sub-100M deals. Probably not an issue for endusers.
