I used objcopy and did coff-go32 from the exe and then I catenated with CWDPMI server binary and I compressed that with upx.
Ahh, OK.
The dmidecode misses the build instruction but I think it was pretty straightforward.
OK I got that to compile with a few suitable tweaks. However it still does not get executed by flashrom on an 8.3 file system as 'dmidecode' is 9 characters long.
It works for me with Freedos because it handle long filenames. For future there is a plan to get rid of dmidecode and do it without external binary.
Sounds like some more comments and possibly a patch for the README are needed? BTW when running dmidecode standalone I get a complaint about /dev/mem not existing so I obviously missed something there as well.
Thanks again, Andrew
