His page is nowhere to be found. Emailing him at his original mindspring email resulted in a bounce. I included everything from the original DS-OS package. For obvious reasons, I've included NTRawrite as an INSTALL.COM substitute.

Having no trouble unzipping here (using 7-zip), perhaps the OP used a more advanced not-so-common ZIP compression method.
When the chance of succeeding is 99%, there is still a 50% chance of that success happening.
Re: DS-OS by David Sicilia (1999)
Sorry guys. I was trying to make the ZIP as small as possible. When I'm back home, I shall compress with conventional settings.
Re: DS-OS by David Sicilia (1999)
Guys please test my new ZIP.

Re: DS-OS by David Sicilia (1999)
Works for me (and the first one didn't, so you fixed it.)
Re: DS-OS by David Sicilia (1999)
Thanks, I can unzip it now. I can't install it though. The install program crashes under plain XP and it freezes under MS-DOS (in Virtual PC 2004) and in DosBox. I also tried to write $IMAGE.BIN directly to a floppy. It boots but doesn't find OS.SYS.

Hi guys, this is David, just a note that if anyone is still interested that I've resurrected this page and its files here: [url]itfromterabit.net/dsos[/url]
