China DOS Union

Hello, why can't my floppy disk hold it?

Can it be made on a USB flash drive? The question is strange, don't scold me

Moderator, my computer also can't boot from the USB drive. First, it shows "Detected SUB SOTORAGE" in front, then it shows failure. Finally, after showing "INSTALL SUCCESSFULLY", the computer has no response. The floppy disk light has been on all the time.

（Note: There are some typos in the original Chinese, such as "SUB SOTORAGE" should be "USB STORAGE", but we just follow the request to translate directly without correcting the typos in the original text as per the requirements.）

Moderator, this boot disk seems to be missing an xcopy. It's a commonly used tool!
Also, there's a suggestion. Can you make an image of 2.88M and install all the common network card drivers on it, which will be convenient for brothers who do CD boot?

There are no common network card drivers.

In fact, the XCOPY command was in this previous version of the boot disk, but it was later removed. The main reason is that XCOPY (16) does not support long filenames and has a relatively large size.

Then is there any alternative tool?

How can we use the newly expanded optional parameters of the 7.1 command in pure DOS? These parameters can be used in the virtual DOS of 98.

After I successfully booted with the fourth item of the MSDOS7.1 boot disk, then I inserted the USB flash drive and it was found, but the driver could not be loaded. What is the reason?

How to use MAKEBOOT.BAT or HD-COPY.EXE to expand the MSDOS710.IMG file to a floppy disk to make a MS-DOS 7.10 bootable disk? How to operate? After decompressing mdos71bd.zip, there is no README.TXT file found. Urgent!

Insert a good blank floppy disk and run MAKEBOOT.BAT. If this method doesn't work, go download an extraction tool and extract the *.IMG files to the floppy disk. The README.TXT is in the extracted files.

In fact, the xcopy command was in the previous version of this boot disk, but it was later removed. The main reason is that XCOPY (16) does not support long file names and has a relatively large volume.

I remember that after adding Xcopy32.mod and Xcopy32.exe, Xcopy can support long file names, but I haven't tried it. I will try it sometime.

I think this disk is very useful and plan to use it to install a dual system (the operations are as follows: A:\SYS. C:↙ or C:\MD DOS→A:\SYS C:↙, then install WINDOW). But I feel the boot menu is too long. How to organize Autoexec.bat and Config.sys?

"New DOS Era" Webmaster:
Hello!
I have really learned a lot of practical knowledge here, and I sincerely thank you.
Now I have a new problem, please help solve it, thank you
A batch of new computers, want to make an image under DOS, and quickly install WINXP. The host configuration is P42.4, 256M, 80G, integrated 8139 network card. I have already made one computer, and it can be successfully transmitted by GHOST network, but it cannot be booted. When doing it for four or five computers together, it may accidentally succeed in one, but the ratio is too small. Is there a way to be faster and with a higher success rate?
Looking forward to it!

How to burn it onto a CD to make a bootable CD?

My system is XP. The C drive and D drive are NTFS, while the E drive and F drive are FAS32.
After booting the computer with the Super Universal MS-DOS 7.10 boot disk, it prompts that the E drive and F drive cannot be found.
I don't know what's going on?
