I need console redirection automatically start up every time I use freedos in UBCD. so I need to put "ctty com1" in autoexec.bat in freedos. since freedos is zipped in fd32rdp.igz, how do i unzip it, edit autoexec.bat, and then zip it again? Thanks for reading.

I got it. I used slax 6 . Run "cp dosubcd.igz dosubcd.img.gz" then "gunzip dosubcd.img.gz" then I am able to mount the img file.

@ grayfox: hoohooslax method is when you use linux.
Here is the windows equivalent:
Download 7zip from
http://www.7-zip.org/ and install it.
Rename
dosubcd.igz to dosubcd.gz and extract
fdubcd img.
Download Virtual floppy disk driver from
http://chitchat.at.infoseek.co.jp/vmware/vfd.html and install it.
Load the disk image file
fdubcd img with the Virtual floppy disk driver. Now you can edit any file on the disk.
After you have edited all the files that you want, gzip
fdubcd img with 7zip and rename the compressed file to
dosubcd.igz.

and in the window is C:\vmare\vfd21-080206\vfd.sys .
I press the install and this what comes up
>Failed to install the VFD driver.
Access is denied.
I have check and check and reload 3 times

You have to install the "Virtual floppy disk driver" in your normal windows environment, not in a virtual machine. And you must have administrator rights to install it.
