[Etherboot-users] can`t create bootable image using mformat

[<vl...@ya...>]

Is DR-DOS free?  If so where can I get it?  Will I be
able to use win 3.1 with DR-DOS?  What about FreeDOS?

Thanks,
Paul

Try setting the attributes of io.sys and msdos.sys to
rsh with mattrib.
Some bootstraps are fussy about this.

Or just use DR-DOS, which works fine.
