FreeDOS has a nasty behaviour: if I issue "DIR A:" and I get an error
(Abort/Rety/Ignore/Fail) if I hit Abort or Fail, it does not abort but
keeps asking again. That is in latest unstable, with older freecom it
hangs forever.
Is this a kernel bug, a FreeCOM issue or is it unheard of?
Try FreeCOM under MSDOS then, or 4DOS (Freeware nowadays, so might be
usefull for your purposes) under FreeDOS to see which component causes it.
There's no official maintainer anymore for FreeCOM, unless Stephen
Kaiser shows himself again.
Jeremy is incorporating some minor patches, but in no way is he
maintaining FreeCOM,
so best way to get rid of bugs is to submit patches to him instead of
relying on him to solve a specific submitted problem.
experimental FreeCOM and Kernel available at www.fdos.org/kernel
to load FreeCOM under MSDOS, specify full path:
SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM C:\ /P (instead of SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /P)
another thing that might work is to specify /F (autofail):
SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM C:\ /F /MSG /P
