Andrew Golding<p>Up to the point where I obtain the <a href="https://cyberplace.social/tags/Freedos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Freedos</span></a> 1.3 USB image and use guestfish to swap out FDAUTO.BAT, bringing the <a href="https://cyberplace.social/tags/reedos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>reedos</span></a> system right to the C:\&gt; prompt.</p><p>Getting to this point takes ~2GB of dependencies and because of virtualization, I need to cheat a bit on the docker image creation and rely on the host kernel image release version being available as a linux-image package in Ubuntu. This means that the produced docker image is less portable but there's not a great way around it.</p>

Colin Cogle :verified:<p>Thanks to an email from a fellow ham, I've pushed a new version of aprs-weather-submit to GitHub and my Launchpad PPA. Version 1.7.2 fixes a bug that prevented weather reports reporting a relative humidity of 100%, though I hope for your sake that you don't need to live in a climate where you take a shower to dry off.</p><p>DOS and Windows binaries have been signed and pushed to GitHub. Excuse me while I try to remember my triple-architecture macOS setup, then I'll have that published.</p><p>Shout out to N9CQS for the bug report, if you're in the fediverse somewhere.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/HamRadio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HamRadio</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/AmateurRadio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AmateurRadio</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/APRS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>APRS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/APRSWeatherSubmit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>APRSWeatherSubmit</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/GitHub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GitHub</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/C" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>C</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/APRSIS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>APRSIS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/weather" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>weather</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/DOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DOS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/MSDOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MSDOS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/FreeDOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FreeDOS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/Ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ubuntu</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/Debian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Debian</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/SoftwareDevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SoftwareDevelopment</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.colincogle.name/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a></p>
