-Any one of the four kernel files suffices to load the kernel. FreeDOS SYS or EDR-DOS SYS may both be used to install the boot sector loader, using their /K switch to set the appropriate filename for the kernel. (EDR-DOS SYS is so old it does not contain loaders that support 256 sectors per cluster.) lDOS's instsect may also be used, in which case the /F= switch is used to set the filename.

+When using the ''edrdos.com'' or ''edrpack.com'' file (iniload), lDOS's instsect may also be used, in which case the /F= switch is used to set the filename. A build of instsect (with the lDOS protocol loaders) is included in lDebug builds. Renaming either of the .COM (iniload) files to ''io.sys'' or ''ibmbio.com'' also allows to load them using boot loaders for MS-DOS v6/v7 or PC-DOS v6/v7.
