I have posted questions on many newsgroups with no luck. I have been recommended to use Dos Navigator dpmi version. http://www.nsk.su/~dnosp/download.htm This does support LFN's in windows but not from realmode dos. I have downloaded DJGPP from DELORIE and edited autoexec.bat to run cwsdpmi.exe when I try to run DN.exe the Dos Navigator executable I get 16bit not supported error. Can a program such as this be recompiled as 32 bit or is this not the problem. I am trying to make the boot disk as user friendly as possable. This fileman has drag and drop capabilities etc. I quess what I am looking for is Windows Explorer for DOS w/LFN compatibility and am willing to learn to rig something to make it work. Maybe this is not possable but what a useful tool this would be. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
