Hi everybody, it seems that tickets on sourceforge easily get forgotten (to be honest, I also check only email, not websites).
So here is a list of tickets for which I believe that they can get updated, closed or whatever. Please comment and update :-) https://sourceforge.net/p/freedos/bugs/153/ crash at dir change (may 2016) probably general emm386 versus disk fail, file there https://sourceforge.net/p/freedos/bugs/151/ sys seems to fail to update the boot sector or mbr (?)
