When it accesses a real floppy disk, it seems to do Hung when the boot disk of MS-DOS (Win95/98/Me) was able to be started by using ISOLinux. example) Not inserted Floppydisk A>dir b: error message A/R/F ? A> inserted Floppydisk A>dir b: ....hung.... It seems to do Hung in Real PC though the phenomenon like place tested with VMware was not Hung. There was no problem in a usual floppy disk emurate that did not use ISOLinux at all. My hardware enviro...

>that image under B: or X: or whatever. This will allow us to cross the >size limit of 2.88MB floppies. Ofcourse when I say "mount" I dont expect >memdisk to mount it, just that set things up so that DOS mounts it there. I'm using a 5MB image which emulates floppydisk. label test kernel data/memdisk append initrd=data2/test.img c=80 h=8 s=18 floppy problems are I don't know how it was generated (Linux), how to insert bootsector. WinImage can edit the image (but not defragment it, or create it). complete emulated harddisk images can't be opened...

...e image, but it's a lot of work to recreate the cdrom again (MKISOFS, burn disk image). So Syslinux 3.xx series has its use, and I'm sure you're still full of ideas. Some I (still) have: *above mentioned MEMDISK support for reading floppy disks and reading image files from harddisk and floppydisk *Syslinux/Memdisk compressible (usable for boot floppy) by UPX for example. Linux kernel can be compressed by UPX, FreeDOS kernel can, and maybe Syslinux also. When seeing the compression ratio in the Syslinux .zip archive there's a nice 2:1 result. *Compatibility with LinuxBIOS would be grea...

Dear friends: I decided to go out and buy the latest issue of Linux Format with the FreeBSD 6 CD. I am very glad I did. FreeBSD is tough to install, but after spending several hours I finally succeeded in doing a perfect installation. ONE BIG PROBLEM: When I removed the CD and rebooted, I got into my Windows XP (I have two separate disks, one for Windows, one of FreeBSD). There was no way to get
