  18. On the other hand, the solution to perhaps half the msdos problems seems
  19. to be replacement of command.com by 4dos.  The solution to half the
  20. remaining half is replacement of msdos by drdos.  After that you need
  21. something like os2v2.  So it's not hard to replace msdos, but solving
  22. its problems takes 3 programs.
