TODO:
*add optional ramdisk (TDSK) for writable region
Ramdisk would allow following things:
+unzip NLS files in FILE_%lang%.ZIP to Ramdisk, then start install from
there, would reduce number of small files used on cdrom as all language files used
during install for a certain language are collected in 1 single zip-file.
*Add more example entries, continue simplifying process to make easier the use
of ISO image as bootable DOS for other software
For examples see PQDI/PQMAGIC/OEMcmd -- other examples to add: Ghost, DOSVNC, X11, ?
PERPETUAL TODOs:
*fix any other bugs that popup [are discovered]
*add/change all the other stuff I didn't get around to
*ensure all programs have been updated (to that available)
*ensure all licenses included in DOCS\LICENSE\ directory and no violations of any
*update all programs and check UPX level for compressed programs. --8086 switch needs
to be used; this in case you copy compressed executable to floppydisc and install them
on a 8086 later on. (because 8086 is in FreeDOS specification as platform to run on)
*ensure docs are updated, also see if anything new to add from fd-doc site
*work on ATAPICDD.SYS so we can include/use it! [longterm] :-)
*test with Bochs (http://bochs.sourceforge.net/) and VMWare
NOT SUPPORTED:
*switching to BootScriptor (unfortunately the license is too restrictive)
*due to size (too big) complaints, try avoid most items that increase ISO size
