* validate that CORE is 100%% 8086-compatible |
|
* Networking setup at install time -> should crynwr be part of the install |
set? Or only selected drivers? Or maybe this could be provided as a |
"supplemental" floppy disk? |
* replace FreeCOM by SvarCOM |
|
* make the COMMAND package smaller so there is no need for multiple |
lang-dependant copies of the binary |
|
* improve installer so user can choose the target disk |
|
* COUNTRY settings shall be configurable by localcfg (and user should be |
able to define local preferences through an easy-to-use wizard during |
install time) |
|
* out-of-the box networking support: |
- requires shipping lots of packet drivers with SvarDOS... Should CRYNWR be |
part of the install set? Or only selected, most popular drivers? Or maybe |
this could be provided as a "supplemental" floppy disk? |
- user should be asked for its NIC model at install time |
- installer could also ask for a basic DHCP / static configuration |
|
* add a "link" tool so users can easily create "links" to their favorite |
programs (esp. things like zip/unzip, etc) |
programs (esp. things like zip/unzip, etc). Might be something integrated |
within SvarCOM, or a third-party TSR. |
|
* install.com - MBR changes could be done by the installer itself instead of |
system()-calling fdisk |
|
* help - write more useful content! |
-> basic DOS commands (directories, copy/rename/delete files, etc) |
-> common configuration files (autoexec, config.sys, pkg.cfg, wattcp.cfg..) |
-> networking guide |
-> memory management basics |

must be taken for core things: kernel, freecom, fdisk, himemx... |

languages -> would be nice to have some kind of web interface for submitting |
and reviewing translations |

* pkgnet.exe: implement the 'checkup' action for easy update checks |
