DOS SYNTAX





SWITCHES= /F /K /N /E[:n]

/F Skips the two-second delay after displaying the "Starting MS-DOS"

message during startup.
/K Forces an enhanced keyboard to behave like a conventional keyboard.
/N Prevents you from using the F5 or F8 key to bypass startup commands.

(SWITCHES /N does not prevent you from pressing CTRL+F5 or CTRL+F8

to bypass Drvspace.bin or Dblspace.bin; to prevent this, use the D**SPACE
/SWITCHES Command to add the SWITCHES /N setting to your D**space.ini file.)
/E[:N] Used without the :n parameter, indicates that Io.sys should suppress the

automatic relocation of EBIOS. (Automatic relocation of EBIOS increases

the conventional memory available to MS -DOS-based programs.)

Suppressing automatic relocation results in less conventional memory

available to MS-DOS-based programs. Use the /E switch with the n

parameter to relocate N bytes of EBIOS to low memory, where n is the

number of bytes to be relocated. The minimum value for n is 48 and the

maximum value is 1024. The number specified is always rounded up to the

next multiple of 16.
