GCC is not problem, in debian I can have more gcc versions installed and I only adjust the symlink to gcc. But problem was in mkinitrd vs mkinitamfs. Finally I took old HDD where left my prevous debian and I compiled it here. But that 2.4 kernel hasn't driver for my current 1gbit ethernet so I need do some swapping to download some needed packages.

Finally I have working kernel and base installation on USB flash. It will need a lot of tunning and configuration but it will go much easier since I don't need rebuild and reflash entire firmware. Now the rest is on USB key and I can plug it to other machine when needed update something. And of course apt-get will do the most directly from network...

But it sill be nice to have freedos there. Georg told me that if I want to fix/modify dosusb sources I had to pay the license :\ I spent many hours fixing FD kernel for free but I don't want to pay to fix someone else code.
