Good day:

I am trying to get CT running under FreeDOS.  Has
anyone else tried this?  Did you get it to work?

Thanks!  I want to use FreeDOS so I can distribute bootable
CD images and people can use them to run DOS from CD
saving the log on a USB stick!  :-)  This would allow using
almost any modern computer for CT (or TR) without 
affecting the existing hard drive at all...

My next step is going to be to try OpenDOS, but the license
for it isn't as friendly as FreeDOS...

This appears to work for MS-DOS, but I can't distribute the
CD images.  I do have a procedure for creating a bootable
MS-DOS CD from a Windows machine.  So, using this, you
can boot MS-DOS from a CD without modifying the computer
at all.  If anyone wants the draft to try this, let me know.

73,

Mark, KD4D
