  • BootAble – FreeDOS boot testing freeware

    To obtain direct, low-level access to a system's mass storage drives, SpinRite runs under a GRC-customized version of FreeDOS which has been modified to add compatibility with all file systems. In order to run SpinRite it must first be possible to boot FreeDOS.

    GRC's “BootAble” freeware allows anyone to easily create BIOS-bootable media in order to workout and confirm the details of getting a machine to boot FreeDOS through a BIOS. Once the means of doing that has been determined, the media created by SpinRite can be booted and run in the same way.

    The participants here, who have taken the time to share their knowledge and experience, their successes and some frustrations with booting their computers into FreeDOS, have created a valuable knowledgebase which will benefit everyone who follows.

    You may click on the image to the right to obtain your own copy of BootAble. Then use the knowledge and experience documented here to boot your computer(s) into FreeDOS. And please do not hesitate to ask questions – nowhere else can better answers be found.

    (You may permanently close this reminder with the 'X' in the upper right.)

Accoording to the website https://internet.nl grc.com is not really save and up to date.
Please check your website en mailservice there.
Internet.nl is an initiative of the Internet community and the Dutch government.

It is also very interesting to test your bank website. :-(

IPv6 is the future!
Actually it's well and truly in the past now. Back in the early 2000's I worked at a company transitioning our products to support a mandate for the US government to support IPv6. (Their mandate was to not buy anything new that didn't support IPv6.) At the current rate of adoption, it seems unlikely that a transition completely away from IPv4 will ever happen in this century.
