Any suggestions how I can get these messages from config.sys       > processing?              I don't know if it's possible or not, but I'd look to see if it's       possible to redirect console output to a serial or parallel port such       that I can have another machine log or print the output.              I think that can be done after MS-DOS boots. But I don't know if it can       be done as it boots.              Also, check to see if the computer supports console redirection to a       serial port for the same effect without MS-DOS support.                            --       Grant. . . .       unix || die              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
