Hi, Jim,

I feel like we've discussed this several times before. Try searching
your email archives, if you can.

Did 1.1 even come with a floppy image? I didn't think it did. Or at
least it wasn't geared towards "floppy-only" users at all. It was a
quick release, no "live CD" functionality either (AFAIR).

http://www.freedos.org/download/ still points to "FreeDOS 1.0 Floppy"
(fdboot.img) at
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/distributions/1.0/fdboot.img
.

Is that not functional for you? Have you tried it? What exactly are
you looking for?

Has the boot sector had any (significant) changes in recent releases?
I doubt it. So you should be able to use any old FreeDOS floppy (or
image or write one to file via SYS.COM included in any kernel
release).
