just a comment :
i search at this time to run MSDOS with WIN98 not running with big drives > 128 / 137 Go
on IDE ports or SiliconImage , HightPOint , Promise & .... that is similar
** no problem with some recent computers with & WIN2000 or WINXP & Win98 running normal with good drivers
( note : with WIN98 on failure mode or MSDOS big problem exist .... : dir /s --> sectors not found )
i am a little sorry because i use always old MSDOS softwares and i have sure problems with big drives
also i can install a special machine with the limitation jumper on the drives but ... why not the full capacity ?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
informations : with FreeDos only ( not Win98 compatible !! ) no no no no no problem
have you informations for make a little drivers ( as functionnality on FreeDos kernel ) for using MSDOS & or WIN98 failure mode without problem ?
