Welcome to my FreeDOS Floppy Disk Distribution!

I created these floppies to support old PCs without a CD-ROM drive or not able to boot from CD.
These floppies bring a very basic, but yet a full DOS system to use "live" or install to your computer.

For space reasons, a lot of stuff was removed from packages. It is available as separate download, see "sources+DOC" in downloads.

It should work on any PC-compatible 8086/8088 or newer.
If you have a 286 or later, there are high-memory drivers and the base-disk may be unpacked to a ramdisk.

If you run this on a real computer and you get into trouble or something is not working, feel free to contact me via e-mail <stecdose@gmail.com>. Also if everything runs fine, I appreciate a short notice with a summary of your system (CPU, RAM, board/laptop/..., etc...).

If you want to install the official FreeDOS distribution to a system, that can't boot the CD, but has a CD-drive, it may be possible by using the official FreeDOS boot floppy or "PLoP bootmanager".

ATTENTION: right now the installer and the full floppy set is not yet fully ready to release, come back later, it will be here soon!
