Request to update the documentation - AwesomeCronk - 06-06-2019
I downloaded Visual Studio 2019 last night(love it!) and got the user kit this morning(6-6-19). I completed a simple OS, tested in VMWare, and tried to make an ISO file to boot it from USB on an old laptop. I found that the documentation for this references many things which(I guess) no longer exist.

Along with most of the graphics documentation on gocosmos.org. I see them referencing VGAScreen() a lot. I tried some of this code and VGAScreen() was not recognized by VS2019.

Right now many of us are consumed upgrading X# and some other places. Would you be willing to help update some docs?
RE: Request to update the documentation - AwesomeCronk - 06-08-2019
Well, I can try, but I have logged about six hours on Cosmos. If I can just get ahold of the technique to export an ISO file, I could try to update that.
RE: Request to update the documentation - kudzu - 06-10-2019
The ISO part definitely works. You can create it by using the normal non USB build.
RE: Request to update the documentation - AwesomeCronk - 06-10-2019
So, I would select “release” at the top of VS2019 instead of “debug”? I’ll try that, thanks!
RE: Request to update the documentation - kudzu - 06-11-2019
No, in fact usually the release configs don't work. Select Debug to be safe.
The ISO/USB etc options are in the project properties dialog.
