I' ve synched my sources via cvsup and made the world, and doscmd was still not here :-( I went in its source directory and made, made install doscmd complained about not finding vm86 in the kernel (with good reason ...), so I rebuilt the kernel with options "VM86" but still no joy (doscmd was bombing about a ``vga'' font not found). after the following patches in "tty.c" : % diff tty.c* 145c145 < #define video_pate BIOSDATA[0x62] --- > #define video_pate BISODATA[0x62] 147c147 < #define IBMFONT "9x15" /* font supplied */ --- > #define IBMFONT "vga" /* font supplied */ % doscmd was finally up and running (but not completely satisfactorily : I can't have accented letters for French) I've followed instructions in "README.booting_dos" and I've got a DOS PC in my FreeBSD (it reminds me the days of the Sun386i) A happy FreeBSD user TfH To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
