- viraptor 7y agoThat would be more of freedos territory, I believe. https://www.freedos.org/ https://www.freedos.org/
- iosonofuturista 7y agoI don't think it's in any way a coincidence, that the third screenshot on the freedos page is that exact POS software.
- jacobush 7y agoI know, but I'm thinking in this day and age, setting up a "Windows" machine may be more familiar, even down to networking. Also you might want to run something else on the machine in the background. Freedos is awesome too!
- faissaloo 7y agoNot much point given that DOS is libre software now
- jacobush 7y ago(FreeDOS is, in case anyone would get the impression MS-DOS was.)
- faissaloo 7y agoNo, I mean MS-DOS https://github.com/microsoft/MS-DOS https://github.com/microsoft/MS-DOS
- userulluipeste 7y agoYou made me curious enough to go check out the link. Yeah, those are sources, alright. Assembly code! Of course, the comments are nice, but that kind of code... could be had, more or less, disassembling DOS' files before, no?
- faissaloo 7y agoNo, this sort of Assembly has comments explaining things, named constants, jump labels etc which would all be missing from the disassembly
- jacobush 7y agoThat's great! MIT license. Still, I think to be more useful it would have be to DOS version 3, but preferably 5 or 6. I don't expect MS-DOS 2 to have as good support for modern hardware as FreeDOS has, either.
