Well, he did do that: >>> lh doslfn.com It could be he installed DJGPP without it though... If that's the case, he'll need to delete everything and reinstall to get the LFNs, SFNs, and upper/lowercase correct. It probably would've taken forever to install DJGPP with DOSLFN active under a real-mode DOS... So, you might be correct about him botching his install. You really need a DOS console like in Windows 98/SE to install quickly. > All files are from the /current directory of ftp.delorie.com > or mirrors: > [...] > > Please note that you certainly will not need all these files, > but I do not have the time to check what is required to configure > the sources and what can be discarded. Unfortunately, I installed just about everything with v2.03. With v2.04, I installed much less. The DJGPP "manifest" directory shows what .zip files were extracted lists these for v2.04: (as .mft or .dsm or .ver) bnu2161a.zip bnu2161b.zip bsh205bb.zip djdev204.zip djlsr204.zip fil41b.zip gcc410b.zip mak380b.zip sed415b.zip txt20b.zip whic214b.zip My v2.04 sources directory has these files also: djcrx204.zip djtst204.zip djtzn204.zip djtzs204.zip shl2011b_v204.zip If he's interested in just copying the required directories from a good, complete install of DJGPP from another machine, say Win XP, then he can read this old post of mine. E.g., he could use pkzip etc to archive the required directories and extract on his machine. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/comp.os.msdos.djgpp/8FybzzHiELA/Fg0UtU9tQdsJ > Please note that you should install DOSLFN-0.41c or later. > Previous versions do not work with DJGPP. Seriously, I don't know what you mean by that. I've been using DOSLFN 0.32o with MS-DOS v7.10 and DJGPP v2.03 without any issues for many, many years. Zero. It's the last version by Henrik Haftmann before Jason Hood took over updates. I have more recent versions by Jason, but I haven't needed them... So, he shouldn't either. I did experience problems with versions prior to 0.32o. Perhaps, the brand or quality of DOS used is an issue? Or, maybe it's the version of DJGPP being used? I.e., I've run into a variety of problems with DJGPP v2.04 with MS-DOS v7.10. Unfortunately, I didn't bother to catalog these as v2.03 was my main install. I just avoid using v2.04. Although, DJGPP v2.04 seems to work good in a DOS console under Windows. But, I've experienced enough issues with it with real-mode MS-DOS v7.10, that I wouldn't trust it, unless it was being executed under Windows or perhaps Linux. Of course, I haven't updated v2.03 since 2005 and v2.04 since 2006. Rod Pemberton
