Hi,
trying to re-create the exact configuration of my pc back in 1992:

I remember my 386 came not with ms but rather dr. dos, version 6.0,
and it was in Italian.

I can't seem to find this particular version anywhere.
Anyone knows where could I find it, or purchase it?

Thanks
r.

Ciao!

Scusi. You'd probably have to use another search engine.
It is not really allowed to talk about "abandonware" here.
I don't think it can be purchased anywhere nowadays.

Arrivederci!

I am not talking about abandonware:

I owned the product so I assume I would be entitled to a digital download of the lost floppies?

Even so, I am willing to repurchase so as you see I am not going with that route at all..

Anyway, could not find it with any major search engine

Unfortunately no. Someone is doing a clean-room reimplementation they christened "Dr Dos 9.0" πŸ™„

No, I meant Svardos, which is the DR-DOS 5 enhanced kernel. (I think its dr-dos 5... cant find the attribution)
