As I told you already this is definitely not a problem of a missing as86. If you got a running binary of mknbi-dos, then all (preassembled!) assembler modules are linked in. There is nothing to configure in them. To make it clear again: exactly what program tells you about a "bad format"? On the server, on the client? What bootrom are you using? Could you send me the first 16 kB of your DOS boot image file in uuencoded form, so that I can take a look at the format? Please, not the whole image file unless it's less than 100kB or so. gero. -- The difference between the right word and a similar word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug. - Mark Twain -- Gero Kuhlmann, Hannover 0511/6497525 (Voice) gero@gkminix.han.de
