- We could do that but there's no way we could support many peripherals.
- That means we won't do it unless someone pays us big bucks to do it.
- On the other hand, we may indeed work on a stripped Linux distribution
- that would allow people to install E/L without having to have Linux,
- but we probably won't even do that until SVGAlib supports more video
- cards well.

- BTW, While I'm waiting for people with slow DOS disk access to try
- 951028, I'm also working on getting E/D to properly read (short
- filenames only) HPFS drives. I think I've found the problem, and
- unlike the slow DOS disk stuff, this is something I can actually test
- in house.
