Dear Sirs I have few time on Freedos but very long time as MS-DOS user.
One of the design goals of FreeDos is MSDOS back compatibility. I think all the OS base files must be in the dir c:\dos, there is where the old MS-DOS programs and user will look for an aplication. Also many of the aplications must to be renamed to the original MS-Dos name. (At least create a .bat that calls the current equivalent) Also I think the standar distribution ay be very small. I remember last MS-DOS was only 3 diskettes. I the base install must be this, only the base and generic device driver. No more than 10 or 20 Mb. The base system may include an aplication installer, to look and install the aplications from CD or from the net. -- +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Marco A.
