This is a small Linux operating system that can be installed on an existing Dos system i.e. msdos, pcdos, drdos, and win95/98 in dos mode.
DosLinux is a LOOP version of Linux and uses the standard Linux ext2 filesystem.
Make sure 'doslnx79.bin' matches the size that is stated in the 'doslnx79.lsm' file before you download it.
It's best to download doslinux through ftp, you can resume an
interrupted download and pick up where you left off.
ftp> reget doslnx79.bin
ftp> open ftp.tux.org
username: anonymous
password: your@email.address
ftp> cd /pub/people/kent-robotti/doslinux
ftp> binary "Set to BINARY mode."
ftp> get doslnx79.bin
If you're not sure you'll be able to boot doslinux on your system
just get 'setup.exe' and 'zimage.bin', if you can boot the small
setup linux system then get doslnx79.bin.
If you can't boot the small setup system there's no point getting doslnx79.bin.
Read DosLinux.README for a overview of the system.
Read HowTo.Install.DosLinux for installation instructions.
