All:
1) That which you're replying to [VERY BELOW], hasn't ever shown up in
my Inbox.
2) I left one line - URL - out of the original. My immediate correction,
also, hasn't shown up; back in my Inbox.
(Which is just ordinary for me and *important* messages to this, or
any, list-serv. :-( )
3) The URL was / is:
(It is sticking IN the whole web page)

To ALL:
Just going thru my (very old) bookmarks at work and found one that lead
to these FreeDOS (old) images.
Freedos <https://virtualboxes.org/images/freedos/>
Freedos
There are several FreeDOS images available. FreeDOS 1.0 Size
(compressed/uncompressed): 84.3 MBytes / 375 MBytes...
<https://virtualboxes.org/images/freedos/>
Maybe we can create a more recent one (FreeDOS) /and/ a DR-DOS (for
personal Non-comerical use ETC.) one?
Two?, might be quite a challenge - but we can dream.
GEM images, too, - but what would be the OS ... ?
[end paste]
From what I looked up and Liam said, that'd be FreeDOS 1.2 VBox "image"
(file) not at Oracle - and I'd hope to create a DR-DOS on, also.
DR-DOS? What vn.? ? you ask.
Well, whichever one(s) was(were) released for "personal non-commercial
use" which would /HAVE TO BE/ attached to the "image" when uploaded.

aaalmost aalwwwaaays and I have to go back and edit them out.
