only 3.7MB. I don't recall that OpenDOS occupied gigabytes of space, so I'd think something like my little old 32MB SD card here would be more than enough.
I made a somewhat (but not completely) minimal bootable FreeDOS/Fractint on a 1gb flash drive, and FreeDOS and Fractint together take 3.28 mb. It also boots on my computer with AMD bios as a "hard drive". One very pleasant surprise is that I have both the CF and the USB drive plugged in at the same time, one (the one I booted from) is C: and the other is visible as D: !! So you could use a small CF or USB drive to boot and another larger one for fractals etc. This requires setting the bios to include some legacy USB support. I have another computer that is similar but older, and I cannot for the life of me get the usb drive to boot. A still older one is fine, go figure. Tim
