General Software Discussion / Re: Edit this Autoexec.bat?
« on: August 31, 2017, 03:57 AM »Thank you for taking out time to explain things. So far i h' tried all the tools necessary to achieve n make a live usb freedos.Alternatively:Its clearly evident from the screen shot tht u're using Freedos 1.0 n the one they r providing is 1.2.
Download FD12FULL.zip, extract FD12FULL.img, write it to a flash drive using Win32DiskImager, boot it, select the language, then answer No - Proceed to DOS on the next screen.
Either way you will need to modify it to do what you want.-4wd
So i believe they did change certain things.
I tried every method.
U should try with ver1.2.

That is the archive for FreeDOS 1.2 is it not?
It boots to FreeDOS from that point you can modify it however you like. It might be that it loads it all into RAM to run in which case you'll need to modify the image it's running from. It might be that it runs from the flash drive mapping it as C:
The point is it runs, FreeDOS 1.2, from this point you need to work on it to get it to do what you want.
I have minimal interest in doing searches and combining bits from multiple websites, (something you're quite capable of doing), since there are easier ways to run DOS programs.-4wd (August 30, 2017, 08:30 PM)
But its not working , i h' already bricked a 16 gb brand new drive i bought recently.
I do not want to do the same, Rufus kind is little robust in this dept. It promises to make a live freedos but all it does is make an installer.
Win32Disk Imager; i think i used tht once on a 4gb drive. It made it bootable but some spaces were lost in the process. After using the format feature from the window: i was able to use the lost space again. But it lost the ability to recognise itself from the boot menu.
So please do not be angry at my continuous request, u h' helped in the past. But this time its not helping. I m okay with the older lighter ver (Rufus prebuilt).So lets close this case. For now. Let just let it be.
I thought u could do something like this from here.
Like here.
I'll just giveup on tht idea.
