I *think* I have found and fixed the Thinkpad MEMDISK problem. The problem with MS-DOS I understand... not so when it comes to an apparently unrelated FreeDOS problem, and as such I really don't know *why* the hack I did works, nor if it will *stay* fixed, but at least it seems to boot on my T61 (at least until it crashes due to another error...) -hpa -- H.

For the FreeDOS MEMDISK bug: I think in memdisk.inc, EDD_DPT.totalsize should be a QUADWORD, perhaps. - Shao Miller
