DOS ain't dead - 32-bit MSDOS

32-bit MSDOS (Announce)

posted by Zyzzle, 28.06.2021, 06:22

I welcome any development of a possible UEFI-replacement for DOS, and the elegance of your "32-bit MSDOS" seems like it one day will surmount the CSM / BIOS limitations which a 16-bit MSDOS imposes.

Memory and file systems supported? FAT32, EX-FAT, NTFS? Is it in fact file-system agnostic? Getting away from Microsoft standards is important, but so is backward compatibility with extant filesystems. Does it support unsigned long access to files natively, ie able to access files from 2 GiB to 4 GiB-1? How about access to PAE memory as has been done with Japheth's XMS 3.5 protocol, for example.
