I have (finally) set-up a broken (but still usable for testing) laptop that had Windows 10 but replaced the hard drive with a 300 GB hard drive and formatted to FAT32.

I installed FreeDOS T2211 build to C:\ (300 GB) and my USB install stick is now D:\


Using WDE in FreeDOS I have saved the first 3 sectors of the MBR to a file (called 3sectors).

As I am running FreeDOS (not DOS71) there is no DOS71BSG.BIN - is it possible to proceed further (with FreeDOS), and if so, how?
