*** What Svarog86 is ***

Svarog86 is a "micro distribution" of the FreeDOS operating system. Its goal
is to provide a simple, single-disk, up-to-date FreeDOS bootable system
specifically designed to run on 8086 computers. Svarog86 is available in a
variety of floppy disk formats. The distribution is built automatically from
FreeDOS components fetched from latest stable FreeDOS repositories, and
carefully chosen to be useful on a 8086/8088 class PC.
Svarog86 can help you revive an ancient 8086 PC either by running right from
the diskette, or, if your PC has a hard drive, allowing you to install FreeDOS
on it using Svarog86 as an installation bootdisk.


*** What Svarog86 is not ***

Svarog86 is NOT designed to be your 'go-to' default DOS bootdisk. It's not
supposed to come with latest-greatest memory management tools, support modern
filesystems or include any networking drivers or so. If you are looking for a
bootdisk to run some old games on your 486 PC, Svarog86 is most likely not for
you.
