Please add FreeDOS compatible boot sectors found in sys-freedos-linux.zip (a copy is attached, origin is at http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/dos/sys/sys-freedos-linux/sys-freedos-linux.zip linked to from http://www.freedos.org/freedos/files/\). None of those provided with v2.2.1 would boot kernel.sys.

Thanks!

    Thank you for your feature request! However, except time to implement a new feature and someone willing to test that feature (probably you?) I also need documentation looking something like the pages at http://thestarman.pcministry.com/asm/mbr/95BMEMBR.htm

    The assembler and perl-code included in your zip file is also some kind of documentation, but reverse engineering that code would for me mean spending more time on this new feature than I have.

    In lack of good documentation or someone willing to do the job with current documentation I lower the priority from medium 5 to a lower 4.
