Ouch. PGM.BAT works just fine, I was looking for PGME.BAT, my bad.

Okay, have fun :-P As an additional information, French letters such as
é, ê, è and so on aren't displayed either.

It would seem so. I see the line
keyb TR,857,%DOSDIR%BINKEYBRD2.SYS
in FDAUTO.BAT

Everything is working fine now. I don't know what the problem was and
like Tom said, I should have written down the error message. Anyway, in
English, French and Turkish in VirtualBox FDNPKG can connect and update
the packages.

Alright, the /p was enclosed in quotation marks, so this was easy.
Regarding the Parameter Error messages, I noticed them in cdrom.fr and
fdnet.fr for instance.

Let's consider:
CD.TRY_DRVR= /g tentative d'utilisation du pilote CD /fYellow "%1" /fGrey
in cdrom.fr, in English it's
ERROR.HARDWARE=/fLightRed Physical hardware networking is not supported
at this time. /fGrey /p
or
ERROR.HARDWARE=/fLightRed La mise en ré‚seau maté‚rielle n'est
actuellement pas prise en charge. /fGrey /p
in fdnet.fr -- in English it's
ERROR.HARDWARE=/fLightRed Physical hardware networking is not supported
at this time. /fGrey /p

I guess these are used in batch files and that the ' character is the
problem. Should it be escaped or be in double quotation marks?
