China DOS Union

Make a Chinese instruction document for WBAT, teach everyone how to judge the system and make corresponding configurations according to the judgment, isn't that better than making that installation program?

Where can I download it?

WBAT I'm also doing research, I can only make explanations after the research is completed.

When will it be completed?

When it will be completed depends on everyone's needs and enthusiasm, because after all, it is made for everyone to use!

I'm a beginner. I watch, I listen, I want to play it..... For the moment, there's nothing to say

Support

Hurry up and make it!

Why can't the system boot after I extracted msdos710.zip downloaded from the Pacific Net and then released it to a floppy using hd-copy? The floppy light is always on, and it gets stuck with a downward arrow appearing, and even pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del for a warm boot doesn't work, so I have to do a Reset. The computer hardware is definitely okay. My computer only has a win2k server sp3 installed, and the partition format is NTFS. The method of making the boot disk should be fine, and the files on the floppy can be seen, and they can all run in the Dos window of win2k. The three system files (io.sys, msdos.sys, command.com) are all on it. But it just can't boot! Could it be related to the hardware? Little brother is new here, hope all great experts give more guidance!

Thanks for everyone's support!

Lang Zi: May I ask whether HD-COPY is used under pure DOS or in the DOS window of Win2K?

Warm support!!! Please complete it as soon as possible!!!!!
I think there's no need to do too many fancy things, short and to the point, simplicity is the key.

Strongly support and look forward to it! I slightly modified the webmaster's boot disk and now use it on the hard disk, but there are more or less problems.
Hope the webmaster's installation program can appear as soon as possible!

Looking forward~!!!!!!~!!!!!!!!~

Boss, I'm currently using Win XP and the C drive is in FAT32 format, and I hope your installation program can be used by me. ^_^

The following is a quote from Wengier on 2003-4-5 7:07:04:
I have carefully considered it. Except for the interface and others, some steps are still quite complicated. For example, for the "conduction system" item alone, at least the following judgments need to be made:

1: Whether WinNT/2K/XP has been installed on the hard disk. If yes, automatically make a dual boot of DOS and WinNT/2K/XP;
2: Whether DOS has been installed on the hard disk. If yes, it is necessary to automatically back up system files;
3: Whether the C drive is the primary boot partition and whether it can boot. If not, it is necessary to continue to judge and perform operations such as activating the partition;
4: Whether the CPU is 386 or above? Is the memory too small? Is the hard disk space sufficient?
5: Need to automatically configure, especially to automatically set files such as MSDOS.SYS according to the situation of this system.

In short, there are very many things to do. Especially the third problem above. If anyone knows how to judge, please inform, thank you!

It can be realized by reading the method of specific sectors. The content of the first byte of the partition table entry is the flag of whether it can be booted. 00H means it cannot be booted, and 80H means it can be booted.
The partition table information is behind the MBR, there are a total of four items. The default first one is at 01BEH, the second at 01CEH, the third at 01DEH, the fourth at 01EEH, and the two bytes starting from 01FEH are the sector flag word AA55H in this case.
Other situations are unknown (actually I don't know).
As for the existing system, you can analyze the MBR and boot records to understand
