You will also need to download the latest version of NASM and Turbo C

where) and then be sure to edit the CONFIG.BAT file to reflect where
you put the tools.
The recommended compiler and assembler at the time of writing (2004/01/31)
are OpenWatcom 1.2 and NASM 0.98.38.

Be sure to edit the CONFIG.BAT file to reflect where you put the tools.

later is strongly recommended. The older 0.98 will also work fine, but

2004 Jan 31 - Build 2033
-------- Bart Oldeman (bart@dosemu.org)
+ Changes Bart
* config.c: allow "0" in full-screen config menus and plug a
few potential related overflows.
* sys.c: correct sectors/track, head and hidden sector values
if the boot sector disagrees with the default bpb (unless the
default bpb says that the number of hidden sectors is zero (usual
for floppies)).
* config.c, main.c: Only put PATH= in the environment if
it's still empty just before executing the shell. This repairs
SET PATH=.... in config.sys without confusing anyone.
* fatdir.c, fatfs.c: Fixed bug #1722: dir_close() was
called for normal files (via map_cluster and find_fat_free). This
completely messed up rwblock. Removed these calls (for
directories they are already covered at a higher level) and added
a few sanity checks to dir_close and dir_write.
* chario.c, inthndlr.c: Expand tabs for int21/ah=2,9 even
in raw device modes and if stdout is redirected. This solves bug
1737 (grep2msg problem)
* ioctl.c: Adapted from Chris Rodie's patch for bugzilla
#1730: do a device input status request for int21/ax=4406 for
devices (not for files). Save ~100 bytes by replacing
s->sft_flags with flags, s->sft_dev->dh_attr with attr and
simplifying the if() statement a bit
* hdr/sft.h, dosfns.c: Adapted from Chris Rodie's patch
(bugzilla #1729): "open" and "close" should call the open/close
functions for devices using a device request when appropriate.
* hdr/fat.h, fatdir.c, fatfs.c, fattab.c, prf.c, proto.h:
+ FAT32 kernels should ignore the upper word of the cluster
number for FAT16 partitions (just like FAT16 kernels do)
+ added extra checks to make sure that invalid FAT entries are
never followed
+ print a message in case of FAT corruption
+ some small optimizations and header cleanups (some suggested by
Arkady)
* config.c: Make strupr code unambiguous
* filelist, sys/makefile, sys/sys.c, sys/talloc.c: ~1K size
reduction for sys.com by using Tom's talloc.c malloc/free
functions and using our own filelength for watcomc.
* initdisk.c: Better (for FAT32) and simpler FAT default
value calculations. Also use 16-bit instead of 32-bit quantities
where possible to save code size. Use a FAT32 table so that FATs
won't be too big for drives <= 64 GB
* dosfns.c: Do not clobber the DTA if findfirst or findnext fails.
Fixes bug #1712
* fatfs.c: Rename blockio by rqblockio (namespace conflict with dsk.c)
* inthndlr.c: FAT32 kernels should fail int21/ah=71 with
al=0, carry set.
* hdr/portab.h, nls.c: (as reported by Tom) Fix nls upcase problem
with SS!=DS.
* fatfs.c: Move permission check to better place (only for
necessary for opening existing files), not for creating them --
suggested by Steffen. Force r/o open for FCB and legacy creat
if the file is read-only
* fatfs.c: Move common code in media_check() to a new
blockio() function.
* fcbfns.c, globals.h, inthndlr.c: Change FcbReadWrite to
handle multiple records at once; this allows for the optimization
of FcbRandomBlockIO.
* fcbfns.c: Divide optimisation (ceiling) + some small cleanups
* fcbfns.c, globals.h, kernel.asm: Rename the global lpFcb
variable to sda_lpFcb. Then use local lpFcb variables where
necessary. This clears up the confusing shadowing.
* fcbfns.c, inthndlr.c, proto.h: Fix FCB problems with
int21/ah=27,28 (RandomBlockIO)
* boot32.asm: jmp -> jmp short (necessary for nasm 0.98)
* dosfns.c, inthndlr.c, proto.h: Implement support for
int2f/ax=1220. Fix int2f/ax=1216 (needs sft handles, not psp
handles, and to return the relative handle in BX, and to deal
with carry)
* boot.asm: Fix problem with FAT12
+ Changes Eric Luttmann <ecl@users.sourceforge.net>:
* main.c: Fix for multisegmented device drivers: If there are multiple
device drivers in a single driver file, only the END ADDRESS
returned by the last INIT call should be the used. It is
recommended that all the device drivers in the file return the
same address. This fixes a load problem with DUSE.
* config.c, init-mod.h, main.c: fix for multi-segment device
drivers; preserve rq_endaddr between init calls for the same driver.
+ Changes Lucho:
* inthndlr.c: Remove AL=0 check for AH=6c (from Arkady) Optimize DL check.
* main.c, serial.asm: (with some help from Tom):
initialize serial ports and retry serial reads on timeout.
* sys.c, boot.asm, boot32.asm, boot32lb.asm:
SYS 3.0 changes: added /L parameter to SYS to be able to change
the kernel boot segment + a few boot sector changes to get the
pointer at the same magic place for all boot sectors.
* makefile: clean up *.lnk files for "clean" and "clobber".
* dsk.c: the DJ mechanism needs to affect MEM 0050h:0004h - MS-DOS
LOGICAL DRIVE FOR SINGLE-FLOPPY SYSTEM (A: / B:) Size:BYTE
* int2f.asm, generic.mak: basic implementation of INT 2F/ax=4a33 -
CHECK MS-DOS VERSION 7; necessary for SpinRite (Steve Gibson)
* inthndlr.c: implement int2f/ax=1211 NORMALIZE ASCIZ FILENAME
* config.c, init-mod.h, main.c: Added SET support to config.sys
