No there wasn't any documentation that was delivered with it sadly. Though seeing that in the tutorial it showed much of the same text on Boot up, i think its safe to asume the card itself works fine. Someone else in the thread mentioned that it might not work because its an HC SD card, which probably can't be read by the adapter, so tomorrow im buying a normal SD card to try it tho

I see, in that case I'll go to the store tomorrow and see if they got a tiny non HC SD card! Thank you!

Just got around to taking some screenshots.

First I press the "Flash from File" button and choose the DOS6.22 Ultimate .img

Then I select the Target, which is the SD Card

Then Lastly I press the Flash button and it does its thing

All ending without error on this screen

This is what the finished thing then looks like

Then I'd usually move onto the Partition Wizard.

Something odd I just noticed is that even after all the flashing and stuff, the card retains its original thumbnail saying "SD HC", would've thought that be gone by now, could that be an issue?

I'll do once im home in around 7 hours! In the mean time, I can definetly say that what the Video shows is 1 to 1 the same thing I saw while working with both programs and I followed them to the Pixel if that helps

As far as I can see, the only one of these relevant to my XT Based PC-10 III would be the classic version which reads

For classic hardware: FreeDOS 1.3 includes a floppy-only edition! This edition should run on any original IBM PC system, including the PC, XT, and AT. Provides versions for 720kB, 1.2MB, and 1.44MB floppy disks.

Since it says its a floppy version, I'd asume I'd have to burn it onto a floppy and then install it? Or can I burn it onto the SD and then somehow boot it into the installer directly?

I did try to see if leaving the partitioning part out changes anything, and still nothing. Same thing as before. Also tried not changing sizes, same thing sadly.

As for the other 2 points, im afraid that I don't have the knowhow yet as to how to check those...

I did think of that too after DOS failed, but from what I can find there only seems to be a floppy based installer for it? Since It doesnt have a working 3,5" drive, I can't install it via that. That or have I overlooked something while looking into it? Is there a way to burn it into an SD Card?

Sorry took a while to respond. I'll try the Matrix stuff on the weekend, I'm pretty busy at the moment im afraid. Though we can continue it in DMs if you like

They take what we make, be it art or Text without our or anyones consent, to me thats stealing something. And yes, there are AI Tools fully build on public Domain and open source things, but those are at the moment, few and far between.

Nope, nothing. There doesn't honestly seem to be anything I'd use it for, even then I wouldn't wanna support it as long as it uses Data its gotten by basically stealing. Maybe once that has gotten better I'll look more into it, but at the current moment I just don't have the heart to support it

The what folder leak?

I am playing with the idea of getting a Printer for my 45 y.o Commodore PET, but I swear they are impossible to find

Sounds great! Which ones interest you the most to mod?

Haven't used Matrix rooms yet, perhaps you could give me a little show around?

I've been japping about this forever now. I honestly think this is Lemmys biggest Hurdle at the current moment

Literally rewatching all his stuff rn

Heh I already got a SyncMaster which I've been using as either my third monitor or Retro Computer Monitor of choice, though since its a Flatish Screen and a different format I've been looking for something more CRT yknow

Question, whats the source? Saw quite a few of this persons arts, yet could never track down the origin

What was the Wikipedia article about btw?

Finally, the perfect Fox Girl

Im aware that its likely more of an app issue, but Universal GIF and Video Standartification is a must at this point. There is literally nothing more annoying than that and I genuinely see it as Lemmys current biggest hurdle. We can't be a proper site or competition to other simular sites if something like GIFs and Videos basically never work properly.
