Last night in my house test the new one make_fd in windowsXP
and it works well in XP too, just i have a problem runing
the .bat file using the windows explorer, it tells me
something about drive a: bloked and no other application can
be executed, or something like thaht. But it runs very well
using the command line (not rebooting in command line mode).
Since BL is a small linux distro for old 486pc's oriented, i
think it's not necesary support for NTFS (I do not believe
that Win2K or WinXP can run in a 486 anyway), for me is ok
use Win2K or XP only to make floppys of BL if i need them.
The PC in my house with WinXP have enough disk space (first
partition NTFS 15 GB and second partition Linux 5GB), I use
slackware 9 with NTFS support.
