Rich,

This is quite exciting!

I had not realized there is a section in phpBB that allows the file size limits to be modified. Apparently the system installs with some arbitrary limitations to discourage spam and advertising. The file size was limited to 250K, number of attachments to 3, and attachments were disallowed in private messages. I have removed those restrictions.

You should now be able to upload the complete ZIP file.

Great - thanks! Whoops still says 256KB limit. Attached the source code. Executables this weekend.

Whoops, you're right, it didn't stick; perhaps I didn't hit the save button? Anyway, I fixed it and tested with a non-admin account, so give it another try.

Thanks - here we go with another try of the full V2.1 documentation file.

Looks like it worked!

Here are the .COM files for the V2.1 transients. I have not included any files for system configurations that are not OSI based. For some of these transients (most significant issue is SYSGN218.ASM - it will not fit on a disk) this the only approach that will work for the 5.25 inch floppy based systems as the disk capacity is too small to even hold the source.

Which brings me to a suggestion - it would be great if WINOSI had a "hard disk". If it had 2048 byte tracks (same as the floppy for DOS/65) then 4096 tracks would get us to the DOS/65 disk size limit. It might even be better if it emulated an IDE/CF LBA interface that might then encourage someone to design an IDE/CF interface for the OSI expansion bus.

Thanks,

Rich
