My goal is to boot DOS/FreeDOS via memdisk, do a few things and disable
the virtual floppy created by memdisk and continue to boot the local
hard disk or an etherboot .com file.
So is there a way to delete the virtual floppy and load a .com file
afterwards (probably not because there is no longer a ramdisk to store
it) or a way to combine the program that deletes the virtual floppy with
the etherboot .com file?
Here is a related question:
How do I delete the ramdisk and continue to boot the local hard disk/
floppy/ cdrom?
