Can't download at http://www.cn-dos.net/newdos/doswarea.htm! Searched all over the world and couldn't find it. Please, moderator or someone who has it, upload it to me. Many thanks!

Both 7.03 and 7.05 are available. 7.03 doesn't support FAT32, while 7.05 should support it. I haven't had the time to test yet!

DR-DOS 5.0
DR-DOS 6.0
DR-DOS 7.0
The system installation disks are difficult to find. I wonder if any brother has them and can share them?

Tried DRDOS 8.0 this morning. Looking at the instructions, the kernel is still 7.03. No product key is needed. Found that it only supports a maximum hard disk of 8GB. It does support large memory and FAT32. It seems its capabilities do not exceed MSDOS 7.1 ------------The best DOS system nowadays!!!

I don't have 5.0, 6.0, 7.0. I do have 7.03. Do you want it? You said you tried 8.0 on the 3rd floor. Can you upload one?

The 7.03 installation disk (5 disks) can be downloaded online. It cannot read FAT32. The 7.05 is also available for download, but it is just a boot disk (3 files), but it can read FAT32. I haven't checked yet how large a hard disk it supports. The external commands of 7.03 should be able to make 7.05 run, but I haven't tried it yet!

I tried the support for 8.0 and it's not perfect either. There are garbled characters when listing directories in FAT32!

I also want the one that has errors. Can it be uploaded? Thanks!
I just finished uploading the 7.05 version, which has a data recovery software. Those who are interested can download and try it.
But when I formatted the hard drive with 7.05 using FORMAT C: /Q/U/S/X, the hard drive couldn't boot. I don't know why?
I used the files installed by 7.03 combined with the 7.05 boot disk to format the C drive. Please give me some advice, experts.

The earliest discovery of DR DOS 8.0 may be by the webmaster:
http://www.computing.net/dos/wwwboard/forum/14731.html

You can download the DR DOS 8.0 installation disk making program on eMule, and you can make 3 installation floppy disks or boot disks. There will be no garbled characters! The download link is still valid now!

6th floor: Is yours the webmaster-optimized DR DOS 8.0 boot disk? It should be said that there will be no problems!

This matter has not been resolved yet. Is there anyone who has it? Can they upload it?

I tried it. Using the DR DOS 8.0 boot disk to list FAT32 directories has no garbled characters, and the installation disk is even less likely to have. Maybe the 6th floor's files are not all in English filenames?

May I ask Yulu: Are DeviceLogics DR-DOS 8.0 and Caldera DR-DOS 7.05 different products from different companies except for the version number?
Downloaded, thanks!
