Are you sure about the non 512 byte sector support?
The fake RAM disk that I show when a NetDrive drive letter is not connected
uses four 64 byte sectors and FreeDOS can read it just fine. FreeDOS
Chkdsk is limited to only working on 512 byte sector devices, but normal
reads from the RAM disk wor

Isn't this the same argument I made for broken hypervisors?

Hi,
I'm writing a PC-emulator (8088 and 8086).
At this point MS-DOS 6.22 works fine. I can type commands and start and
play e.g. DOOM8088.
Of course I also would like FreeDOS to run. Booting the installer floppy
works fine to a certain point. I get the menu where I can select a
language. After I p

is to create a TSR hooking INT13h.
Second possibility is to compile my own FreeDOS modification when I could
modify the function FL_LBA_READWRITE inside FLOPPY.ASM.
This seems to be valid because I am maybe the only per
